So are you looking for new headlamps (like the Helix Halos or the Anzos) or just new bulbs?

Well look at my profile if you want to see what the helix halos look like (I don't know if they legit helix brand but they look exactly the same). I got them from x3racing.com

One thing to note, the stock headlights have a little tab on the outer sides that help keep the bumper flush with the front quarter panels on either side of the xB. At first you will notice it a lot but I forgot all about it after about a month its such a small detail. I'm sure there is a way to fix the small blurb but it's really off by so little like I said I don't notice it anymore and completely forgot about it.

Here are some shots of my own xB, I bought these off eBay for $135 shipped!! Quality of these is amazing! Light output is that of the OEM lights, but looks better!

My husband has those for now, just remember to hook up the eyelid so it lights up. I've seen sooo many with it out believe it or not.

Did you have trouble with the tab and alignment? I like those, but I don't want any unecessary gap.

Is there a specific model # and website I can reference to pick up a pair? I like the way they look with that grill. Did that grill come painted? Thank you.

I love my ABS dynamics grill! Thanks for the compliment....

Anyways, NO it did not come painted. I paid aprox. $60 for the grill. It comes in a gloss black plastic, and some mold lines are visible......

So I had is professionally painted for $130....... Body shop did a excellent job!

Thans again!

So here are some close ups of the "fit and finish" - where the bumper meets the fender....Looks great IMO

Sorry for the dirty xB
