I like the shot from the back at night. I think if you put some led's above your license plate, it would compliment the headlights being so pure white. Just my .02 though.
Looks nice, but to be honest I'd hate passing you on the road. That is extremely bright and a lot of glare... you know 55W HID is brighter than normal high beams on right?

Ouch.
A 55w HID puts out about 50-60% more light than a regular low beam 55w halogen, a 35w HID puts out about 30-40% more light than a regular low beam 55w halogen... And yes they are probably just as bright if not brighter than a high beam but I have everything pointed fairly low to try and minimize the amount that will get in drivers eyes but I think it is mostly in vein...

I like your idea, I might have to do that. Thanks

It is.... I can tell you if we were driving opposite on a road with no lights I would 100% be blinded.
Just a quick photo of the install location. You can barely see them when the bumper support is on so it is pretty clean looking when it's all back together.
