The manufacturer of this kit is actually subcontracting to make kits for Phillips HID kits as well. So the quality of this kit is very top notch.

Cool, how would you compare these lights to stock EVO HIDs in terms of performance, intensity, flicker, appearance, etc??

just a heads up all MRs came with hids, and i'm pretty sure there are 2 different kinds of hids ones that are made for cars that already come with HID projectors and hids that are made for non hid projectors or normal headlights, (for instance older higher end acuras)

Yeah, that has to do with the masking in the bulb itself. D2S is for projector housing, while D2R is for reflector housing. These are the only types of actual HID bulbs made. All retrofit kits have these bulbs, they're just rebased to fit a different type of housing . I.E. 9006, 9005, H11...etc. As long as the QC is good, they should last just as long as OEM HID's (which I understand Helios is).

The 6000k and 6500k's look great in person. I saw some of these at Helios' booth at SEMA this past November. Gruppe-S is also a great shop.

See here for all your HID FAQ's (very informative):

http://faqlight.carpassion.info/headlamp-faq.htm

To clarify, you guys DO have H11 kits? Will you have D2S bulbs available as well at the same Kelvin? I'd like to get my low beams to match my fogs, when I upgrade. TIA.

Edit: I know it says 2/11, but is this still available? Or will something like this be available again in the future?
