Yeah that was a real diappointment, like having a fat chick with you.lol My favorite is the sbf because it's narrower and with the front dizzy it allows about 2 more inches of setback and I read it gives you a 50/50 weight balance.

do HID's safely and use projectors. as a beam of scattered bright as hell light isnt going to do anything for you, you need a projector to focus the light, in other words just because your lights are brighter doesnt mean you can see more and if anything is going to blind oncoming traffic which would create an even worse situation.
