the corner lights i think will always be a hair brighter than the mains headlights because the metal reflectors behind the lense are much closer in the corners. Therefore they reflect mroe daytime light.

You can get it pretty close to factory if you keep rubbing the headlights for a while thol.

USDM lights - plastic, aimed for right-side driven roads.

JDM lights - plastic, black strip on the outside (I think), aimed for left side driven roads

German lights - probably aimed left side, but full glass lense. Same with Austraila, IIRC

That rubbing compound trick works if you put some effort into it (not say, one wipe and it's fixed)... or change lenses to FK ones

You can get German headlights from Courtesy Nissan, if that's what you were asking about.
