Updated valeo projectors(aftermath)!
well after waiting couple weeks of repair i finally got these headlights back and they are awesome. i got some of the beam corrected but still do need some correcting. overall im pleased how they turned out. cant wait to get them on the road tommorrow. anyways here are pics:







one that thing that kinda bugs me is that the flare from the beam seem to shrink or basically dont seem like wat they usually look like when up close. any reason y and how to fix it? other than that superb

i see that too......the color thing might b the camera cause u can see alot of color in person but the light diff......wtf? anyways they seem alot better than before thats basically all that matters but wat is kinda buggin me is that the passenger beam would look the same as before without being counter-clockwise shot. a lil illustration:

i mean i dont mind at all just a lil awkward when i expect it look the same as the pics up above...explaination(sp?) please?

maybe the right side is suppose to be the driver side projector? They might have shorten the beam to keep from blinding on coming drivers.
If not i think you can just fix it with the rotational adjustment. My e46's kinda did the same thing the first time before i messed with it some more.

valeos usually have no preference for driver/passenger side. and the cutoff will just get bigger, but maintain the same shape when the car moves further away from an object. there should be no change like jay78 said.
