So here's a quick update.
BOTH of the projector lens' have massive scratches in the center.
OEM Headlights are re-installed.
These sped-d headlights are getting shipped back for a full refund.
Cold Air intake installed and working.
Glad you came to your senses.

I'll bet you $100 that a retrofit with 4300k bulbs would be a shit load brighter than what you have right now.

We can post comparison shots. Who wants to post their retro output to compare? Mine will just be overkill since its a higher wattage.
Actually, if CM5 has a buddy with a car that has factory HID projectors, he can side by side it. As for the 8k HIDs, the whiteish blue is deceptive to the human eye making them seem brighter than what they really are.

I just created in the lighting forum to edumacate yourself. There's A LOT more to HID lighting than what I posted but this forum isn't dedicated to HID lighting.

You will need to make sure both people use the same F-Stop and Exposure length to ensure accurate pictures!
I HATE when a company puts a picture of obviously photo-shopped lights. (THEY ALL DO IT)
pisses me off.

I'm fully aware of having the same camera settings. Out of that entire post (which I obviously edited out information I had posted elsewhere) that's all you were able to get? You didn't happen to notice how I said to compare his lights to another with factory HIDs?

Gotcha. That would be best for another topic as we've already derailed the hell out of this one.
