Default HID HELP

i just got my 8000k HID installed last night looks really nice but i put it in my stock headlight would that be ok? or i need to put in projector or have to do retrofit work on it? cause i dont really like the projector for the prelude i rather get the JDM one piece headlight....and with the stock headlight aim down, can i blind on coming traffic? dont want to get pull over, i really like the stock look right now even though i know the cutoff line would be a lot different if it's with projector

thanks for help

A projector would make the cut off point cleaner. The beams wouldn't be as messy as the stock headlight. You won't get pulled over unless it's blinding a cop/trooper.

I say if you have the money, get projectors retrofitted in the JDM 2 piece. I'm assuming you drive a 4th gen. It's all on what you want, and if you have the money.

If you think it looks good now, stick with it. As long as you're happy.
