Be very careful buying headlights from the states.

It's a left hand drive market, and headlights bought there will shine straight into the eyes of uncoming traffic. Headlights come in LH and RH drive

And be very wary of cheapo HID kits...the ballast boxes get HOT, and apart from possible issues with that, they burn out with no warning, leaving you with no lights...could end badly! If you want to do something with the lights, you can put spotlights on (I'll put up a guide to that soon, behind the grill is awesome ) and buy some nice +50 or arctic blue globes...
