Please help this ricer!

Hello ! So where do I start ?
I drive a G37x 2013 , and other than focusing on performance. I decided on cosmetics.
So I do have my headlights tinted . It never occurred to me at the time that it will mess up my ability to see at night . Sooo ... I need new headlight bulbs and want fog lights upgraded to after market . But the thing is .. WHICH ONES ? There are so many to choose from but I honestly don’t know what will or what won’t fit . I need some options and advice from my fellow G drivers . What kind of bulbs should I get ? I prefer it to be a bit blue but I want the functionality to see perfectly at night . I would want the fog lights to match also . Pictures and links to the prices would be greatly appreciated! ALSO ! I was looking st some halo lights . I don’t know what to go for , halos , angel eyes , demon eyes or iron man . What else is out there ? Please send me pictures, links , and/or prices ! Thank you guys !

-your friendly neighborhood ricer

Seems like the simple solution is to remove the tint on the headlights.

I'm all for personalizing your vehicle and modifying it to your taste, but nothing in this world grinds my gears more than tinted headlights. Beyond stupid.

Yeah,I agree on removing the tint. No matter what bulb you put in there,The tint is gonna dim the crap out of them.
Kind of a safety thing too.

Remove the tint, crack open headlights, paint, reseal, 100% cosmetic improvement over tint and you can use your headlights as an added bonus. Check out diode dynamics doe bulb options. They have a good selection and a two year warranty on bulbs.

Get rid of the headlight tint. Avoid blue bulbs altogether, they are ricer AF and will not give you better visibility, but worse. Get good quality bulbs (check out The Retrofit Source) and keep the color temperature about 5000K or lower if you actually want to see instead of throw glare into the face of other drivers. Halos, angel eyes, etc. on this car mostly look like textbook rice IMO.
