The flare for HID headlights isn't so big that it will blind oncoming traffic. I can say that it doesn't equate to driving around with a PnP kit in halogen housings. I'm going to be honest about the S2K projector being fit into the low beam reflector. It's not going to happen. If you haven't seen a set of Inspires in person, you may not realize how small the low beam reflector is. I guaranfuckingtee that it will not fit. The S2K projector is larger than the low beam reflector of the Inspire. That's why the only thing I think would work is trying to retrofit a bi-xenon projector into the high beam reflector. Then you retain the look of the Inspire housing with the low beams on (which looks awesome), you have the option of having a projector for better output (that can be paired with the Inspire low beam), and you keep the functionality of the high beam with the bi-xenon projector. If it all fits, it will be magical.
I don't think that having Inspires is a drawback. It's a slightly less expensive way of having HIDs for people that don't have the skills or coin for a retrofit. If you're really anal about the flare being correct, then you can open up the housings and make it a flat cutoff instead with a dremel.
