I have a base GSR (didn't want the added weight and the headlights to me aren't that bad... the low beams are a bit weak yes, but high beam is a HUGE difference and isn't bad at all. IMO you'd be better off just buying some HID's and installing them later on unless you care that much about stereo, tall boyish wing, etc. Save some weight.

Don't put an HID kit in a reflector housing you will have hot spots and horrible glare. If you are going to get HID's either get the factory projector housing or do a retrofit you want be disappointed. The cut off and the spread are well worth the extra money in my eyes.
