now what i'm curious is..... what do you guys think about this? Does anyone else have JDM's with HID? have you caused any problems or anything?

should i still get HID or stick with stock halogen bulb's and get some driving lights?
No one really answered your original question, so.......

DO NOT put real JDM housings on your car for street use, and definitely DO NOT put HID's in them

Ive seen real JDM headlights on an RSX, and there is definitely a huge flare to the left with those things. Even with halogens its very blinding. The guy I saw who had em said he is blinding people all over and getting highbeamed all the time. I would not even consider JDM housings with halogens on our roads, let alone HID's, its just dangerous, and doesnt even light up the road well for our needs.
