That looks similar to Infiniti's new Q45 with multiple bulbs. I be interested on how much that type of setup cost.

this is a pic of SOARISTO'S GS in japan. They are the new Q45's headlight. He bought them from Infinity(Nissian), then did the swap.

Just do a search on his name, and u can find some threads on the deal....

Good Luck with DIY.

There in no kit out as far as I know and you have to get some bracketing manufactured (or make it yourself)...plus you have to source the Q45 headlights...quite a project!

as good as it looks i would not do it 'cause it requires a lot of modification to the headlight itself in order to even fit them..

Funny, but that light looks so much better in a GS.
