I'm also looking for options.
Would love to get something cool, unconventional and functional.
Very nice headlights I saw for X5 were tinted angel lights with white turn signals.
So far the best looking I've seen are these
I'm also looking where to buy a nice set which is ready to go. That means without the need to open them, buy the rings reparation, replace the rings, etc...

I've had plenty of DEPO products across a number of platforms and they all have been very close to OEM quality. That said I've never had anything electronic from DEPO, it has always been just housings with all OEM lamps, drivers, etc.
The lights in the picture are modified "Euro clear" DEPOs or OEMs with the orange turn lenses cut out and red LEDs behind the projector. Awesome mod, always wanted to do this to my Z32.

I have never held this particular pair but every aftermarket (ebay/amazon) housing I've ever run into has leaked like a sieve and needed resealing before use. Also looking at the pictures of the back its pretty apparent that those are built with inferior materials. I'd recommend the OP to stay away from those.
I just went through the headlight search 6 months ago and landed on sourcing good condition used OEM because the Xenon replacements from Depo are $600 for a set and as you know OEMs are twice that. Everything else I found had terrible reviews or none at all and looked cheap. I was chasing the OEM look though.
My suggestion to the OP is to check out umnitza and unique style racing. They sell the Depos in different flavors and provide warranties.
