What headlights do you recommend?
I am going to by a base model firestorm FRS and would like headlights with DRL. Which are recommended and would not break the bank?

Your base model FRS has DRLs built it. They are standard and won't break the bank.

I agree, but I am mainly getting it for the looks. With the DRL it looks more like a expensive up-scale car if you know what I mean. Like the Audi cars really get your attention with the DRL they have installed.

Why not get the monogram headlights? I think they are very nice.

If those are the headlights you want, you are better off either just getting the monogram series or going with the winjets linked above (which will only run you like 500 bucks for the pair). Its probably going to run you at least 2 grand to do the OEM swap alone, whereas the monogram also has the dual A/C and leather/heated seats, push start, keyless entry.....for 2600 more than the base model. If you are not married to the firestorm color, you could also look into the 10 series. Some people are getting those at pretty good prices these days, and they have most everything the monograms have but the leather heated seats.

The windjet headlights gets my vote, too. Looks close to OEM.

Nokya yellow drl/high beam and blacked out housing is a pretty cheap way to make it look good.
