Default Headlight Advice Needed

Greetings all,

I'm new to Club Lexus. Recently purchased a 2008 GS 350 AWD as a second vehicle. Just to tinker with and take out on a sunny day. Nice car. Mechanically solid, but some things need work. I'm looking to replace both headlight assemblies, but I need to go aftermarket. OEMs are more than $1000 a piece. I would like to keep things as "stock" as possible. I will need to replace both ballasts as well. Also, if possible, I would like to go with LED low beams, and totally eliminate the AFS feature. Does anyone have recommendations? Is this even possible? Advice is greatly appreciated.

Heads up for anyone getting these headlights, while they look amazing for some reason they don't waterproof the main connector. The other small connectors are waterproofed, but the main connector is not. You need to apply some dielectric grease to make sure corrosion doesn't build up and block current after some time. They also have RHD beam but if you adjust them correctly it looks normal.
