The bulbs are exactly the same across the board. Its a matter of optics that makes them appear different. And that my friend comes from HID projectors. Look up the HID bulb bananza sticky for more info

I think I fixed it.. I took out ECU-B fuse for 25min, then having the lights switch on auto, turned the engine on and saw the lights auto-level, first down, then up..

I just noticed that my driver's side headlight is lit higher and when I looked from the top down onto the headlamp the bulb shinny housing inside the headlight has a much bigger gap then the passanger, I must have moved it or something when I installed it.. I will try to redo it tomorrow and maybe try to move it back into place.. I hate when something does not go right after I do something to the car..

HID leveling problem
Ok here is my problem.. Can anyone look at your headlights and compare them to my pics that I included on the bottom of this post.. one of my headlights is not alligned correctly.. after putting the car on straight road, I started the car and saw the lights auto level and these are the pics of the way my lights are leveled, there is a problem and I must re-adjust them, but do not know how!
