No experience with those.
These have great review on amazon and are pretty cheap.

I've heard good things about Nokya's halogen bulbs but I didn't know they made HID bulbs. It may be worth a shot to try out.

I run Nokya bulbs in my fogs, they are really good bulbs. Never tried their HID bulbs but I know they make good bulbs.

As far as I know, those HID bulbs should be official and looks like the real deal at least in that pic.

Not worth $115 IMO.

I'd grab two pairs of these for that price:

The price is yes a bit high, but the brand name is what makes it interesting.

Just go for real HID kit, you won't regret it a thing about it! I ordered it from DDM tuning for my fogs, should be arriving this week and also I have Xentec for my headlights still going strong for 2yrs!

If you have 02-03 Maxima get DR2 HID bulbs 6k-8k don't get 10k too... blue and less visual.

I liked the look of nokya bulbs but never had a pair that made it over a year and a half.

yeah, do that. PNP kit in a 5th gen. a REAL HID KIT means projectors. That's teh right way. DDM or Xentec is just a HID bulb inside a HALOGEN reflector, which is RICEY and GHEY and nothing but GLARE and HORRIBLE output.

Haha... good one and uhh is that 5.5 gen because of those chrome handles? Why does it have 00-01 headlights

I actually am running housing HID you're right it does cause glare but I will eventually get a projectors, only one problem is though I don't know how to do it and I'm not going to risk it. I can't find anyone who can make a projectors for my headlights.

That picture showing HID to the wall it pretty obvious aiming up high my is aiming at down towards the road clear visual for me... for 2 years.
