Go with projectors retrofit. The aftermarket headlights are usually poor quality projectors and most look terrible. With the projectors retrofit you get sharp cutoff, good light output, and get to make it look exactly the way you want them.

AFAIK there are no aftermarket projectors for Pilots.

Don't think of there's an aftermarket projector headlight for the pilot, even if there is! The output is even more awful than your reflector. But most people would pick up an aftermarket projector to use for retrofit it make it easier and you save $30-50 to get the shroud to cover the projector. For entry level retrofit look into Morimoto MH1/FX-R, or for better results look into S2000/LS430/rx-350s/Murano/RX330/TSX.
