Yea the 5th gens prety much suck (havent seen a set of aftermarket headlights on them that I really like) headlight wise anyway. I say the first ones too out of those two choices.

And yah that guy was annoying...i think he shouldve been banned but this works I guess. He's still a "HCF Member" thought which is what he wanted in the first place O.o

Chrome projectors never look good. Even most factory chrome projectors don't look good IMO.

Wow, all of this really isn't helping.... Votes are about even between you guys and my RL friends... I'm about to just flip a coin... Although, I did find the chrome housings in the 2nd one for $50 cheaper

The chrome ones aill be cheaper (normally) cause they aren't the highly desirable of the two choices...the black housing and other darker colored ones (Ex; Gunmetal) are gonna be more pricey. I say just get brighter bulbs and get the OEM headlamps and amber corners and call it a day but it's up to you.

On a side note to the fellas who, like me, don't like the halo/projector headlights...I now have to deal with this on the Frontier forum O.o A wholllle lot of the members over there spend a lot of money on them. They'll spend like $190 on a set of HID Halo/Projector black housing headlights and another $150 or so on LED black housing altezza tails It's insane...I never thought that people in trucks (even the big 4 door new Frontiers) would want them. I was/am highly dissapointed in the people who do have them

Definatley the first ones IMO. The halos don't stick out as far and if you don't wire the halos to a switch they'll burn out in a year or so. The other halos are recessed so much that you could see them when they're turned on but if you had them off it wouldn't look like they need to be on.
