HID install pics...amazing!

After months of research, I've finally found the right kit. It's a 6000K conversion kit with custom molded H4 bulbs with integrated shielding, and Hella ballasts that I had to import.

The results are amazing. Very clean white light, with slight blue...not too blue like the 8000K kits. This is the perfect blend of blue and brightness.

The beam pattern is perfect...almost identical to my stock pattern. My HID's have a very sharp cutoff line as well and won't blind oncoming traffic. Very interesting that I could get these kind of results without having to use lens. The appearance looks same as the Lexus HID reflector lights. The top half of the headlight lit, with the bottom half not.

The lighting on the road is amazing. I've driven beside Audis, Acuras, BMWs, w/ HIDs on the highway, and as soon as I pull up right alongside them, you can't even see their light on the road anymore.

I wanted to put up a post along with some pics before I become unavailable during my extended holiday! Happy holidays to everyone...

Note: these are daytime pics taken in my garage after install. They don't look anything like what it does at night. I'll take some more pics in the New Year.

Very nice, what did the total setup cost? Do you have part numbers or company info?

PS - Nice keychain, where'd you get it?

I'm with FDSlave_girl but he forgot to mention the brand and the price? I'd like to see the Knightsports HID kit, since they are $250 less then Bellof's.

I'm assuming this eliminates the high beam. Very tempting though.
