YEP!

Because they are PROJECTOR HID's and the suspension is fairly tight. I have harder coils installed on my car, and many people mistake it for me flashing them...

Hehehe

Peace.

Reason why the car seems to be flashing is because the line which separates the light and dark is very distinct. You will find that when you are following other cars the line rests right on the rear end of other vehicles. When you hit bumps the light will bounce up and down hitting other drivers rear view mirrors. This gives the effect of flashing high beams. I was told from my friends that my car looked like a rolling disco and it was very annoying.

I adjusted my headlamps downand its MUCH MUCh better. It use to be that when I turned on my high beams it made absolutely no difference. Thats how high my HID's were adjusted. I adjusted mine lower so that If I need to see far ahead my High beams are more effective. Now I dont have a problem disturbing other drivers.

Peace

Where I live there are barely any light standards around to help muffle the light, so when you have me coming head on it looks like highbeams and flashing all the time. I get flashed everytime I drive....not in a good way either.
