You do have HID's stock, so I think you just want to change bulbs. Check the lighting area on this site, there's a lot of info about headlight changes, LED's, and fog light HID conversion.

You'll need D2S bulbs and the temperature rating of the bulb you want. Our OEM bulbs are between 4300K and 4500K, not sure. If you want a whiter light output, go up to 5000K. 6000K bulbs will give you a hue of blue, but your output will be much lower than OEMs, so watch out for that.

If you want a bigger/nicer blue/purple flickering effect, you'll need to replace the projector lenses.

Morimoto and MTEC bulbs are good, from experience. Check Diode Dynamics too, they have a lot of stuff, and even LED packages for our cars.

If you call HIDNATION they will give you all the info you need, I just recently change both my 4300K bulbs for 10K and my driving/fogs as well. They gave me a really good deal on them. I got them both for 90 bucks. (2-10K bulbs and complete 10k H1 kit)

I dont know a lot about my g37 so thats why im asking.
So I already have HIDS? Correct?
Also I'm thinking 8000k bulbs or 10000k bulbs
Also what is the bulb size on the g37?

what do you mean you're still having trouble finding a brand to purchase? the above forum members have been giving you advice, tips and reviews about what to get. not to be an a**, but how do you know which brand is a quality brand when you didn't even know that your G37 had stock HIDs???? here's my suggestion for you...check out ddmtuning.com. My brother and myself have purchased multiple HID kits from them and has been satisfied.
