your beams are crosseyed.
those little kinks signify the center of the beam.

you want the beam aimed directly down the road, not angled in or out.

each projector creates a beam. and each beam has its own "kink"
those kinks should not diverge or converge at any point.
they should be parallel to eachother down the road.

yeah that looks much better.

try and have them even, or if anything only have your right one a bit higher.
the left one will really **** traffic off the most if its high, but you can get away with it a tiny bit more on the right.
