Ive also noticed Dirty hasnt been around in a while which I thought was strange. Hmm.......
Anyway, the HIDs I have from Chad are good. I never had any issues with them and they still work as they should. The main reason I bought from him was because of the group buy and his warrany. I know you can get HID kits off ebay for $60 shipped but then you have flickering issues and little or no warranty. Atleast Chad is in the US if you know what I mean. I did 6k because I didnt really want a lot of blue. Around here any blue light will get you a ticket. Im not sure I would but the Halo rings from him for two reasons. One is the cost and two I heard they are made of glass and people who put them in themselves have broken them. Now I know you are paying him to put them in but you can buy everything you need to make your own for about $20. Ive got everything I need but i just keep running into other projects to do first. But that project will be coming up soon I hope.

8000k will be very blue. 6000k is slight blue. Is Blue what your lookin for? You have projector housings r are you putting those in stock housings??
I just ticketed a Navigator the otherday for running HID's in stock housings. Those suckers were so bright it was ridiculous. i couldn't even see past him! The light scatter is terrible in stock housings. It looks like you've got your High beams on. i would reccomend aiming them a few turns downward, but even then it may be very very bright and blinding to some.
Suggestion..... Stand about 100ft away and put your eyeballs at 4ft above the ground and see if you are being blinded. if not, then you will be alright.
