Thanks for all your help guys. I appreciate everyone who took the time to help me out and not bash me or my car. I will get some pics after everything gets fixed from the accident and gets painted.

Actually, somethin you may wanna try that could be much cheaper are some JDM Raybrig bulbs. I saw some for my car not too long ago and they were super bright white. Only 60 bucks as opposed to like 400 for HIDs and they have a similar look. Have fun being able to see at night, I know with my projectors I sure can't.

Here ya go sunshine, just find the ones that fit your car and any type should do. Read the descriptions to find out which ones you'd prefer. They supposedly put out twice the amount of light from OEM wattage.

Actually, truth is, the BEST way is to get the HID's from an Evo. Not the whole headlight housing, jus the projectors+D2S capsules+ballasts/ignitors
Something we call...retrofitting.

how's this NOT the best?

just as a side note, where can I upload pics and movies? also, to all that talk about glare, I have 0 glare with my hids aimed higher than my old halogens were, I have tested with my friends vehicles to make sure while I was doing alignment, and I had a car as low as a lowered miata to a lifted Dodge ram, and finished off with a 67 mustang and a honda. non of them saw any glare excpet for what was being refracted onto the ground to the left and right of the main beam pattern. I've been driving as much as I can in city, freeway, and country driving, and no flashing of any sort from any cars. its all just a matter of taking the time to align your lights properly.
