Lose the faux JDM plate.
Lose the TEIN stickers.
Lastly, invest in an S2k or TSX retrofit for your HIDs and lose the smurf blue capsules. Judging by that last pic, the glare must be awful for oncoming traffic.

If you want maximum return on your investment and zero bullshit from the cops, I recommend switching to 4500K capsules and find some way to combat the glare problem.
Once you go beyond 6000K white point, the amount of usable light drops dramatically. That's why all OEM HIDs are 4300K.
Having been damn near blinded by every EK / EJ / EM with plug & play HIDs, the glare issue is a matter of public safety for everyone else on the road. The most effective way to fix it is to retrofit a set of HID projectors.

I never said they were fake HIDs.

All OEM HIDs are around the 4300k range for the most useable light. I would like to see a picture of your "non glare" HIDs shining on a wall. If you have a straight line then you have no glare.

Thats was my Integra with OEM housings and a HID kit. As you can see I too have a slight amount of glare and those are stock projectors. You have reflector housings and those tend to produce tons of glare without any sort of cutoff.
I like the stance and the way the car looks though, just not the rims.

I like it. Not a huge fan of the wheels...but they don't look bad and you said you're getting C8's anyway. I'm not particularly fond of stickers on cars...but other than that, it's a clean car with a great stance.
*edit*...what suspension are you running?
