I've seen many pnp kits and bought myself a 8000K kit with supposely a shield but all it did was give a glare which is why i threw it out(<<buh bye 200 bucks there)

You can do a make-shift shield. You've just got to compare the original OEM Halogen bulb with the HID bulb, and try to imitate the light emission by placing a shield over the bulb with cardboard or plastic or whatever. The problem is that you would have to make the shield small enough so that you can still re-insert the bulb into the mounting hole in the headlamp. Plus whatever concoction you brew, you would have to make sure it can hold up to vibration, moisture, etc. Not easy, but do-able, but it you might be better off just buying some OEM projectors and sticking them inside your housings.
