So I'm a former lurker coming out of the shadows... figured I'd show what I did on my front lighting to give people some ideas on what's possible...

My setup... http://www.ultm8z.com/Exterior.htm (bunch of photos)

The headlights are retrofitted Acura TL projector headlights (DIY details in the downloads page of my website www.ultm8z.com (http://www.ultm8z.com))

Headlights turn on automatically via auto-turn on module (http://www.amazon.com/Directed-Electronics-545T-Nite-Lite-System/dp/B000CJ24YY)

DRL's turn off automatically when headlights turn on (via relay circuits)

Custom "switchback" circuit turns off left/right DRL when right/left turn signal activates (via relay circuits)

Here are some videos showing the operation...

Great write-up and ideas on making an upgrade without breaking the bank, or having to manufacture things myself.
