took the shields out to do some trimming and took some pics before i put them back in. used my fone cam so its kinda blurry. sorry no pics of wall shot. wasnt able to back the car out of the garage.

 

nice post ... would love to see pics of the beam pattern of the difference with no shield vs. shield !

 

Love to see beam pattern Pics. Did you just use thin metal to form the shield? I need to do this for mine.

 

I did the same thing when I had my Maxima and when I had HIDs. I made a shield out of a copper tube, cut it in half, painted it with hi-temp black paint, and JB Welded it on to the base of the bulb. After adding the shield, I have never been flashed. Since then, sold the car and HIDs with the shield.

 

whats that going to do for you?
