they look to be aimed good. if you get people flashing you, just aim the drivers side a little lower.

some pictures dont load on my computer at work. i can see 3 pics....the last one i see is very dark....doesnt even look like your headlights are on. i dont think i see the one your talkign about.
but anyway, glare with HIDs in a halogen housing is somthign your going to have to deal with. no way to get rid of it. best thing to do is just aim them lower if you get flashed alot be other drivers.

the glare is normal with stock headlight housing.. u can't avoid it.. the best u can do is to just aim your headlights lowers..
