    Spyder is well known to be a serious downgrade over stock. OEM is actually the highest performing headlight assembly. If you are looking for a different look, I'd suggest the smoked chrome OEM Pro headlight assemblies, and for a performance upgrade look at the thread below. Everything you need for headlights is there, links to buy the best performance OEM parts, best bulbs, and how to get the most performance out of your setup.

    The only improvement will come from better bulbs in the OEM housing(phillips or Osram), or retrofitting your headlights with quality projectors and running an HID setup. Right now I'm currently running the Morimoto 2stoke 2.0 LEDs in my OEM housings and they actually have a good beam pattern with minimal glare. I'm planning on a retrofit down the road but these are an improvement for the time being.
