8000k isn't going to be as bright as a 4300-4500k setup.

I want them to look blue.
My cousin has a 8000k on his bmw and he has the projectors on them and i like the way they look.

I also heard that the H3 hid bulb might not fit inside the socket spot.

Does anyone have any pictures of there HID kid on projectors?

Thank you very much

your going to need to do a retro fit using hid projectors. If you use the projector that comes with the headlights they will not look like your friend bmw since your friends bmw got hid projectors
heres my denji headlights which got projectors in them with hids you can see the glare http://pictures.sprintpcs.com/...azaNx I recomend you do a hid projector retro fit for the headlights,I'm going to do the same as soon as ?I get time

Do you have an H3 HID kit? Or do you have an OEM kit? If you have an OEM kit then the reason there is so much glair is because the gas chamber of the HID bulb is not in the place that the projector is designed to have it sit. AKA: the gas chamber is too far forward. Get some heat resistant washers and use as many as need be to make the gas chamber sit right where the bulge in the normal bulb sits in the projector. The cutoff/glare will be 100 times better that way.
