Default Who else keeps changing their headlights out?

Here's my history:

1) Stock
1) Whistler modded (same set of headlights)
2) Black Halos
3) Whistler modded
4) Black Projectors

AND NOW...

5) BACK TO WHISTLER

That is 5 different sets of headlights on this car alone

Stock sucks, so I modded them. Then everyone's Halos looked AWESOME in pics but I thought they looked like @ss on my car and traded cash+stockers which I Whistler modded...

Projectors came out, looked cool. Bought them, still thought they looked cool but overtime felt they didn't go with my car's theme (it is retro and these were more modern). When you looked at my car your eyes went straight to the headlights and I wanted the car overall to keep you attention, not have one part stand out.

SOOOO, I just put Whistlers back on and the Projectors are being sold (already sold so no need to ask).

I'll probably go for SET SIX when I eventually buy a new pair to Whistler mod so they will look perfect... For now these are close enough !

Anyone else as undecisive as myself?

Stock ones filmed over and got all cloudy and nasty looking.

Bought brand new ebay ones, that already had the whistler mod done. Cracked and filmed over and looked like shiite after one year

Bought a mint used set, still look good after two years.

Damn Tennessee sunshine

Ha! Didn't notice the question in there... Well, the projectors' lenses were MINT so anything less is a little annoying.

Not enough to worry now but if they get worse I'd just buy a new set of headlights and mod them...

WHY IN THE HELL doesn't any of these companies just sell us the lenses?!?!?! They are already making them (same lense for stock, whistler, Halos and Projectors)...

Stock.
Had to polish the stockers, wasn't 100% happy.
Black halos.
Used, yet perfect stockers.
Back to black halos.

Everyone seems to like the black halos on my car.
