All are rallaye 4000's. The top middle two are euro beams. the outside two are Luminators-Fogs-all 4 with 110 replacement bulbs. the luminators work great for slow speed night work or just light when parked. the euros beam focuses to far out to be of great use when say crawling the fogs spread out wide and near. the two on the grill are euros with same replacement bulbs. they are tied into the high beams and I use them all the time on back roads. Pencil beams are really only useful if your routinely traveling at very high speeds >90 or so 55-85 you'll never outrun the eurobeams. My headlights are Cibie replacements fron daniel stern with 100/80 hella bulbs around $150 for whole conversion and work awsome. stock lights are incredibly poor for 60,000 vehicle

the bulbs in your lights will help, however, the size of the 4000's (reflectors-look at the depth difference b/w stock lights and the 4000's) and the high quality lens is what really makes a difference. all the bulb in the world is no good if it isn't focused in the right place and what your paying for is the Good Hella or PIAA optics. Even with the bulb upgrade if you go to 6" or bigger PIAA's you'll see a big difference

I had a GM body shop paint the grill over 2 months ago no chipping at all still looks perfect and I routinely use my 2200psi pressure washer. I would be happy to get the number of the fellow who painted it-he is a patient of mine- and he could tell you or your body shop how he did it.
hope that helps!
