That's a lot of glare

have you tried lowering your headlight?

I do like the fogs though.

Umm those are real HID's. Learn what you're talking about before you type something that could be taken offensively. 8k aren't ricer at all, it's just a look. It's not like 8k temp HID's are "fake" ones

So 8000K is ricer and NOT real HIDs? Please noob, watch what you say before people get on your case. 8000K is a choice. Most people dont like 4300K because their objective isnt to be stock but to be unique. The word "ricer" is thrown around WAYYYYY TOOOOOOO MUCHHHHHHHHHH.

Anything can be classified ricer then. Body kits, wings, lowering too much, etc. So why dont you take any of that as ricer? Please man, watch whats said.

Other than the glare, they look nice. Are those drl's? If so, which bulbs are those?

So is the word noob

When I first wanted HIDs I did the plug n play kit in the HIDs but the glare was terrible, even when adjusting the headlights down. So I decided to have a retrofit done and couldnt be happier. No glare and the output is great. I like the way it looks, especially the fogs, but the glare is what throws the whole thing off.
