the beam patern is good.. and i actauly finaly believe that the are angled SLIGHTLY.. strange.. but they do seem to angle towards oncoming traffic EVER SO SLIGHTLY.. no biggie.. not anymore flashing at me than normal.. i expected to get flashed all the time due to the lacking glare gaurd thing over the bulbs.. but no real problems.. im gonna get the city lights soon to finish them off..

and about the knockoffs and all.. i have nothing against them.. but now the the "clean look" is cool where i live.. there are more and more (like 4 or 5) hondas poping up with giy gunmetal/ebay etc... i just want to start getting real high end stuff.. simply because others wont.. i was also drawn to these since they would DEFINATELY not leak.. im real happy.. well worth the $400.. if one broke id replace it with another $400 set
