actually, your regular lights in comparison will illuminate the road much better than your 8k's... there should a write up about HID's thats sticky'd... but other than that... looks good.

Good its better than going with a HID PNP kit so now your at least not blinding people with illegal headlights. I've 6000k fake HID bulbs in my car it looked about the same. But if you want better light output without going true HID then go with some Sylvania Silverstars.

Holy ****ing glare. Pull those out before you blind every other driver on the road with your illegal lights.
