well, chris knew what he was doing so I guess there will be exceptions, the bluer light creates more glare than whiter even brighter light, he compensated by aiming his down a bit

Exactly, you cant really flame on everyone for this. If they want to do th they want to do this. Some of us actually took the time to get them aimed properly. I dont have a super great cut off line but its good enough and i made sure i aimed it down, so that i wouldnt blind other drivers.

I put a car in front of me(lowered civic) and made sure that when i was sitting in the driver seat where i was directly in front, off to the side, or directly behind, that the beam was never solid into the car.

I know my beam pattern could be a little, and that would require a projector set up but thats a little more then i want to spend, especially when I think the current set up does a good enough job.

To the people out there modifying projectors to fit, awesome, more power to you. To the people out there installing HID's and taking the time to make sure you are being respectful to other drivers, awesome.

I almost did it myself and opted not until there are some headlight options at least but more power to you. I got a little carried away.

I don't really have any cutoff....the light is spread out...guess its cuz i don't have projectors...
Hmm...i understand what you guys are saying...but..i have this shield thing that is covering up my bulb....so it already blocks off the brighest part of the bulb,...so this isn't what you guys are talking about right??
