98 Camry Retrofit

[PulseczarSin]

So I've completed my retrofit and even got the headlights cleared with tons of sanding, I feel as though I might have shot myself in the foot by purchasing 8000k lights. The headlights have been adjusted they're level as can. When I let my friend drive it I can watch them from far away and they're clean and bright, although being behind the wheel there's barely any light projected and barely a cut-off line, any ideas? New lights?

Maybe the projectors you used are junk? Switch to 4300k bulbs? The housings weren't cleared very well?

8000k is crap, just show, 4300k come ome for a reason

I figured that may be it. I'll buy some and check it out. Thanks!

Since it was my first time I didn't want to completely mess up and spend a lot getting some really nifty projecters, They're from the 08 Camry, the kit that used was a 10000k kit that I had bought not thinking about the amount of light I was sacrificing for color. I've got a few pics I'm just working on getting them on the site, my SD card reader in my laptop is def. malfunctioning.

Although, I know they're not upside down, I have a cutoff line its just extremely faint on the wall.

There's a few pics that I took before it started raining. Creative criticism is good, just don't burn me I'm new at it! =)

IMO, the lenses could be cleaned up a bit. They seem kinda foggy.
