Just an update to this. I had to raise them a little bit more, now they're pretty spot on. Done a few night drives with friends and the ones I get behind say the cutoff is so good they can barely tell my lights are on. So no issues not using a clear lens. I hit the high beams and then I got a middle finger from my buddy in his Boss 302

The HID kit I used is absolutely a cheapo kit. The lights take about 15-20 seconds to "start up" I'm told with better quality ballasts this doesn't happen. I'm okay with it. It takes me that amount of time to get my damn harness on, plug my phone in, pick a song, then drive off.
