headlights without yellow or orange marking on the side... the bulb itself is colored for the turn signal.

What makes you think headlights look like that in Europe?
They should be called Ricer headlights.

Yes. "Euro" is slang I guess for those around my part of town. Never understood why they're called euros myself....

To me a euro is nothing more than a clear headlight as opposed to those headlights that inhibit the full potential of the lightbulb. A Euro != HID

Cause I am Turkish and we get Euro-spec cars in Turkey unlike the U.S.

Xenon =/= Euro headlights.

Don't talk outta your ass.

If you do modify your headlights, make sure you do it right or you're going to piss off a lot of people the next time you drive at night.

sorta,
usually the european specs headlights have no amber markers on the sides - the light bulb itself is amber rather than the housing. Audi E-code headlights have also better projectectors, so the beam patter is lot cleaner
