People tell me about the glare.
But it doesnt bother me at all. I love they way they light the road. Perfect for me.

haha i tried to use that philiosphy..as long as i can see im happy, but then i started thinking of how i re-acted to these people who had blinding lights. I then decided to make my own glare shields and they turned out to be a pretty good success.
KT3 = sterling mist.

And i also drove behind my other friend, i asked him if i was blinding him, he said no.

Nice pics, but "light the road"? It appears only a small area in front of the car is being lit up. I dont see how they could be illuminating the road very well without them being focused and instead scattered the way they are. Sorry, but Ive never been a fan of HIDs in refeclective housings. Color is ok I guess, but output is crap compared to projectors. Also shouldnt this post been put up in the members ride section since there just pics of you car and not really focusing on 4th a gen specific topic?Originally Posted by maximaserg

I had 9004 HID kit in the OEM 4th gen Glass hedalights and trust me, you blind people..
even whenI had the cefiros... i rigged the 9004 HID kit to the cefiros and the light output was scattered, but not blinding ( because of the glare shield)..
Lesson learnt: doing retrofit..
it's not as much blinding the person driving in front of you, but more for oncoming traffic.
Pics look great, but lower the contrast on the 3rd pic.. you can see some distortion..
but other then that, sweet location!

Hey some people just dont believe that hids are bad when not used right.



Those are hids in projectors alot cleaner.

Maybe just a bad pic. But to me, this isnt very good light output...

The curb across the street is barely lit up. You cant really see anything unless its right in front of the vehicle.

Hmm, I think there's a misunderstanding..
The light output in a stock headlight = very bright
The light output in a projector = bright, focused and wide beam..
When I had the HID's.. don't get me wrong, EVERYTHING on the road in front of me was lit up.( cars in front of me, I was casting their shadows on highway signs)..
it's more of everyone else.. yes, the output is bright, but it's too GLARY..
having a projector, the light is focused to shine straight , wide and stop at a certain height..
no projector is simply a non focused, not clean light output...
but hey, if you like it, you find it's lighting up the road enough and no one is complaining that's it too bright/blinding and cops are not pulling you over, then it's all good.. it's your ride, therefore, your drive it and not other people..

Projectors do have clean ligt and yes it is focused. There are a couple free form d2r setups that are as wide and focused.
what suspension are you on? you definitely to to go lower or with some coilovers to level out the car. its would look 100x better leveled out.
im sittin on
Stech teins with some tockiko shocks.
My car is higher now because im sittin on
18 inch Moda r6 rims
24/40/r18 Fuzion zri tires
