looks great.... now the real question.... how does it project? does it light up the road right & not blind oncoming traffic?

looks sweet btw

The glow rings may be a bit cheesy. Can you actually see them? I thought at night the lights are always on. Even in the day, the lights may be on to help people see you. Are the glow rings ever visable?

well currently they both are set as highbeams projecting upwards what im going to do is flip ONE over so one is all time highbeam and one is alltime low beam and later on i will upgrade it to HIDS so then time to blind peple

the halos are alrite its nothing special but i plan to wire em as running lights and as turn signals using a dpdt or dtdp whatever its called and im also going to do that with my tail lights they will be split half and half for running lights / brake lights / turnsignals and ill shave off my under fender and make it flush i saw it on my friends sv and it looks awsome and acctuly on a bike u run ur headlights all the time day or night and yes th eglow rings are visibile if u dont look directly into the lights right now it hurts ur eyes cuz its projecting upwards like highbeams

You don't flip them over to get a high beam. You simply aim it higher or else you can modify the cutoff shield by cutting it down in size a little. Or just remove the shield completely.
