Calm down on the Caps Lock.

Secondly, the stock wattages are 65 for high beam, 55 for low beam, and 55 for foglights. You are fine. Lastly PIAA full of crap on the closest thing to a real $1300 HID kit. HIDs only cost $275 now a days. You probably spend more than 1/3 of that in just them bulbs i bet.
