G37 coupe headlight issue

Hey, I hope you all are doing well. I recently bought a 2008 infiniti G37s coupe. I replaced the headlights with some gtr style headlights. Everything worked for the first day. Day 2 comes along and the high/low beam went out on the right headlight. Checked it out. bulb was blown so i replaced it and as soon as i put the new one in, i turned the car on and it didn’t work. so i pulled it back out and find that the new bulb i put in 30 seconds ago blew. so checked the fuse and the high and low fuse were both not working using a fuse tester. took the fuses out and they weren’t blown but thought that they might just be bad some other way. Tested the new fuses with the fuse tester and the fuse tester doesn’t light up. so nothing wrong with the fuse and now i don’t know where to check. please if you could give me any advice on my next step that would be much appreciated.

Go back to the stock headlights and verify all works for a few days.
If it does, the "gtr style headlights" are the issue. Contact the seller to troubleshoot.

I just looked up the headlight wiring diagram for your car.

The left headlight uses a 15A (fuse 56), and the high beam solenoid a 10A (fuse 54)
The right headlight uses a 15A (fuse57) and the high beam solenoid a 10A (fuse 55)

Those fuses are fed by two headlamp relay "high beam and low beam" and these relays are directly powered by the battery.
All the fuses and relays are located next to the battery in the IPDM/ER module.

You may want to get a cheap volt meter to troubleshoot this and check the power to each fuse and the power to the headlight.
Here is the wiring diagram:
