Nice, does look so much better. Do the stock halogen headlights project the light well?

ive driven by some cops and nothing so far should be fine though, and stock halogens are pretty good as far as visibility but it doesn't compare to the light from HIDs

Yep, the Xenon HID headlights really do facilitate exceptional visibility. I was impressed with them from the first time I used them, especially the way the light is "layered" just below the sight line of most oncoming traffic.

with 8000k you lose a little bit of visibility from 4500k-6500k but its still better than halogen and looks a lot better than 4500-6500k IMO i also dont want HID fogs i have yellow bulbs in them and i think they look pretty good
