My width of my current set up is comparable to the s2k but the intensity is like 99% of the s2k. The LS430 will be the current widest projector out there.

Yea, sure. I am using the 4300k D4s phillips bulbs, D4s Slim ballast, 01-04 Lexus SC430 projectors, E30 Crystal Clear lenses from BMW 3 series (89-91). Most importantly you need a dremel to shave stuff off.

That's what I always thought. I always wonder why other people's stock HID are so much nicer than mine. Maxima's, TSX, TL, etc, etc.

They all have the same color temp and everything, its just the way the projector bowl is made. That's why it looks nicer.
