my TSX projectors also have cutoff issues, the passenger side is completely screwed...but as long as I still a cutoff and no glare and have output, don't really care
did you guys deline the plastic lense? 85122+ bulbs? I have 85122 bulbs and output is like halogen...terrible, but when I had the + bulbs I was brighter than 95% of the road

The light reflects off the bottom of the headlights at the curve and causes glare. I want to find a way to fix that before I do a new retrofit.

Too lazy to deline my headlights. I'll probably buy brand new oem headlights in the future since the yellow annoys me. That is only if no one buys my car soon.

He hasn't touched his headlights since the retro, other than trying to fix his broken highbeam 
I doubt you can get rid of the glare unless you paint a matte surface onto the chrome shroud..but then it'll look ugly. It just happens that the shroud gets in the way of the light output (another reason why output isn't as great as the same retro in his previous accord).

I'm slowly piecing all of the components together; I have the bulbs/ballasts/lenses/brakets... now just waiting on the clear covers and I'm good to go...
I'm thinking of painting the chrome area more of a silver and maybe try to fade to a darker grey closer to the outer edge of the lens as I'm guessing the fluted area on the bottom of the lens is what is causing a good amount of the glare??

I believe the flutes are part of the problem, but I don't really want to paint them if I get clear lenses in the future.
