it's been said before.....but I can't help it. HID's.

[ilovemyhonda.]

this is like the third time i've seen you use this argument of "people are gonna do a bunch of other illegal shit anyways so why not do this too" or whatever it is. you're right, but that doesn't make it okay to say well, hell i've already got illegal ass tint on my car, non amber turn signals, noisey exhaust, etc etc etc, i might as well put on stupid bright head lights. i agree that it's different for ever car, and the kits are different, but i PERSONALLY have almost driven off the road cause some fucking integra was coming at me an LITERALLY all i could see where his HIDs i tried staring at the white line on my side of the road, and i couldn't even do that. and i have perfect vision. no contacts no glasses no lasik nothing. i mean if someone brake checks me, that's my fault for folllowing too closely, if someone cuts me off, i can get their tag etc, but if i run off the road and total my car in a ditch because i was blinded by somebody's HID's who doesn't know how to manage their money well enough to SAVE up and do it CORRECTLY, blinded me and ran me off the road, i'm fucked, because there's a 99% chance i won't be able to get their tag or anything. i mean if you can't afford to do HID's correctly in your car you shouldn't be spending the money on them in the first place cause clearly you're fucking broke and probably have better things to spend your money on. doing it right is not THAT expensive. i'm sick of seeing a bunch of half assed shit, because people get their panty's in a bunch and can't possibly wait one more pay check to have enough money to do something right. they've gotta do it RIGHT THIS SECOND.

Okay so it was part of my argument and is valid. If someone cuts me off and I hit them it should be there faults if I don't have anywhere to go or enough time to not run into the back of them or brake checks me and I wreck my car, because they wanted to be a dumbass, they are doing something illegal and could cause danger to other drivers. Just as HIDs can "blind" someone and cause them to wreck. I didn't do it the right way, because I don't have the money, but because as I stated previously numerous amount of times, I have NOT had any other problems with any other drivers on the road. If I start having problems, then I will go back and redo them. What about someone with illegal tint. If you can't see them through the tint and they pull out a gun, it could be to late to do anything about it and you could be dead. Just throwing out scenarios that could happen with other things that are illegal that people can and do. I got my HIDs to help me see better, not to be cool and join the fad. Just because this is Importatlanta and a lot of people in GA are on this site and a bunch of people have HIDs, doesn't mean someone can come on here, complain and everyone is going to run out and correct it. What I am trying to say is, no one is going to change something just because one person complains about it. I can't make the OP not throw change bombs at people for having HIDs and that is illegal and dangerous just as well. You can't stop people from doing things they want to do, whether they are doing it the right way or the wrong way. Deal with it, strangers who have nothing to do with the car scene deal with people who have HIDs so people in the car scene should deal with it to. Also, as I and a few others stated, there are some new cars with oem headlights, correct housing and all that a far worse blinding when I pass them then HIDs, but that's legal, so if I wreck my car because of that, what happens then??


It also depends which K HIDs you put on your car..some are worse then others...

my comment was not directed at you or your HID's everything i'm saying is directed at people that have blinding shit. as far as brake checking goes, i'll admit i do that when people crawl up my ass. it pisses me off but i just tap my brakes so the brake lights come on and scare the people behind me. i don't actually slam on my breaks and cause them to swerve or whatever, and if someone brake checks you, and you hit them it's your fault because you should not have been following to closely. think about it, if they actually HAD to slam on their brakes because of something infront of them, you would plow right into them and it would be your fault. but that's all irrelevant. the topic at hand is overly bright HID's. tint, cutting people off, tailgating etc has nothing to do with it, and is not a valid arguement or point when discussing headlights. hell i probably shouldn't even have said anything about them in the first place. and i'm not saying that me sitting on the computer talking about how irritating incorrectly installed HID's are is going to change anything, i don't expect it to. i'm meerley expressing my opinion, which is what this forum is for. but if you have not had any problems or complaints about yours, then i have absolutely no issue with you running them however you please and you should do be able to do so.
