    Yea yea yea I know the big battle about hids in a stock housing an how bed the glare is, I have 6k hids in just some chrome headlights. And as you can see I'd say they're aimed pretty real an actually have a decent cutoff ( yes I know it's not a projector cutoff) but still just thought id share my setup because it works great an as you can see is focused pretty well as well.

    Do you get flashed a lot?
    I reluctantly helped my buddy put some in his DD civic last weekend and aim them
    He gets flashed all the time and his cars a whole lot lower then yours haha

    It doesn't matter how you aim hids. They reflect in that halogen reflector and scatter light everywhere which is where the glare comes from. Yeah your "cutoff" looks close together but look how close you are to that wall lol
