Has anyone purchased HID headlights from BlackFlameCustoms.com?

I want to do this next and want to see some light output pics, I could not find any specific to this company.

Cool, I'll be waiting for the pics! Funny, I was installing rear springs at 1am last night myself.

I am curious to see the output and cutoff from these.

something don't look right, one of them is off rotation and needs to adjusted laterally outward. neither of those adjustments can be done w/o opening the headlights.
should look more like this

Maybe not perfect but pretty damn good. Beats the hell out of the cheap ass HIDs in my Tahoe and OEM headlamp assembly. I like it.

Mmm ... I wonder if that's on purpose.

I've seen a few folks prefer sloped cutoffs, although not usually with MH1s.

You might be able to adjust it a little by loosening/tightening the screws of the headlight housings, especially the ones on the sides.

Roy, I'm not sure but I think BFC 'hard mounts' their pre-retroed projectors ... if so, and unless I'm mistaken, even opening the housings won't help.

First post on the forums -- thanks Serge for the recommendation.

Matt got your email and just read through this post. If you can email me over individual pictures of the LH & RH projectors output.

The projectors we use have a small amount of rotation built in, for this exact scenario -- so if you have a small bit of time to tweak them I can walk you through the process.

If anyone else has questions please let me know.
Thanks
