Rushdee helped me install the HID kit and we went out that night to compare and do a quick photoshoot. I know the pics arent the best but I just wanted to show how they came out

He is using a BMW retrofit (I believe it's 4300k or 4700k)

I am using a McCulloch 5300k kit I got on eBay for 220 shipped in stock housings.

His are pretty much white with a purple tint and mine have a kind of blue tint but the pics dont really show it.

I was thinking of doing projectors but the glare isnt too bad I think so here's the pics lemme know what you think...

The exposure was messed with to try and get the true color of the lights and it still didnt really come out...thats why theres a lot of glare in the pics...

You need to come over and tell me how to take pictures of LIGHT.

They arent here for the photo quality, just to show how the lights turn out with different K and different installs.

PM rhdune16, he's the one with the JDM headlights, mine (the dark 6th gen) is totally stock housings

Since my car is entirely stock outside minus a slight drop, want to explain how a stock 6th gen accord is garbage besides the transmission?

I'm lookin for feedback if you want to tell me whats wrong with my car then tell me. "garbage" doesnt help.

 

I'm glad I don't live around there! Thanks for blinding those that do though to "hid kits"

I messed with exposure to get better explanation of the colors, the glare isnt really any different on mine than my mom's TL. I was actually surprised by this, if you look at the last pic i'm getting a nice even pattern on the ground and the wall shows that it doesnt go above two feet, the pattern is actually much tighter than I would have expected.

My attempt is to do everything reliably and safely, if those were putting too much glare out I would take them right off. I tested them myself by driving an SUV and a sedan towards my parked car and I am not blinded by the lights or distracted more than any normal HID setup. I know what i'm doing with lighting, i've taken enough science classes

 

look at all these trash takers haha... here are my pics i took....
