well you have to feed them the right fluid, bathe them often, and nurture them as they were your own child...

You said you could go with a true HID sytem. This sounds like more than just bulbs, is there more to it than that? Also am I better off going with projectors ?

Projectors are your call, if you want the look then go for it.
