The problem I had with the factory housings was that it scattered light on the ground, so the beams always looked uneven to me. I'm a lighting freak, so I retrofitted, but the HID output is amazing...
If you do decided to go HID without the projectors I would suggest aiming your headlights down just a few notches... Basicially if you pull up beheind a car, and your beams are reflecting off thier bumper and glaring you, chances are your glarin' the rest of the road...
If your about 75ft behind a vehicle and you can see your headlights on the vehicle in front of you's head rests they need to be aimed down.

There is a group buy going on right now on SL for Oznium HID's, the kit is going for $210 and it is your choice 6k or 8k. I am really unsure which I want to go with. I am leaning towards the 8k because I want more of the blue.

^^ Ya they do look more purple than the ones in my bmw but my bmw has projectors and i used the stock headlight for these ones. But i do have the same sets in both cars Xtec 6k. But i do know that different kits look different. Another friend has a Prolumen 6k set and his looks different than both of my sets. Who knows.
