All the projectors for this car are ugly, the only time projectors look good are when someone does a retrofit

No they're not. I mean, ill admit they are some pretty "ricey" ugly looking housings out there.. But some look pretty tight.

Why do you think that all the car companies put projectors on ALL cars that they make that come with HID's?

Ummmm... I am sorry... but I live on a main Trucking route (M-52) and every night I drive home from up town.... I am always blinded more by the eye level low beams of a 18 wheeler or f-350 than I am some low riding car with HIDs in stock housing..... I mean come on.. the person is coming at you for what.. a total of about 3 seconds , if that, where you might be kinda affected by glare? Look down at the white line on the side of the road in front of you to keep you position on road but lose the glare.. problem solved

Honestly, when lights come at me and start to blind me, I just look to the white line to the right of me on the road so I know where I am at and then when the car/truck passes... look back up.. total of about 3 seconds? Wahhhhh Wahhhhhhh Wahhhhhhh...

The original poster should also tell everyone he is getting High-Glossed Silver reflective tint all over his windows. I bet that would make for some entertainment!

I don't think anyone said it performs or looks better, I'm pretty sure they are just saying it doesn't look bad in stock housing. But its an opinion no matter how much you argue on here people are going to do things differently

Car's aren't bad with bright lights.. it's the trucks/SUV's that are bad. Especially when people are ******** and drive around with their high beams on all the time. That is the worst.

You have to take in the fact that not everyone is like you. Most people, young or old can get really affected by those lights. And get really distracted. Ask a trooper or cop why they pull people over.

People who see no glare, don't know what glare is.
HID's in reflectors = **** light quality

Thanks for playing...
