Yeah I use it too, and I always have to dig and dig - thanks to those guys who just start new ones rather than do the digging - but it's always out there.

Yep, but you should utilize the other function known as STFU instead of STFF. 
Mystery.. you definitely should upgrade those halogens to a HID kit. As Frank says, it won't help the beam pattern but it can't hurt - plus it will look much better. I don't have HID fogs myself, so I can't comment on the effectiveness of those but it is a very common modification.

I think the passanger side is supposed to be higher a little bit, plus your output looked better that way on ground.
You should get HID kit for your headlights and matching HID for your fogs. You need clear lens foglights too. Combining all of these will give you a really bright ouput

Where exactly should they be? As in the first set, or somewhere in-between the first and second set of beam pattern photo's?
I'm afraid of blinding people on the passenger side if it's too high.

You would only be blinding people with a too-high passenger side light if you were driving on the wrong side of the road. You live in the US right?
Your pattern looks fine adjustment wise, IMO.

cool...thanks. (I was worried about blinding people through their cars' passenger side mirrors.) I'm in Canada (will update profile now).

Hey I think they look great!
Too bad no one makes anything for the coupe.
Whats up with that?
Nice grill to.
Clean look overall. Nice upgrade.

Just to clarify...
Alright, from this thread I've gathered that, if you can afford it, OEM bi-xenons are the best way to go. If I missed something please steer me right. Does anyone have pictures of OEM bi-xenons in use? Maybe compared to HID bulbs in the standard aero-composit housing. One last inquiry, how much would it cost to have dealer upgrade to bi-xenons?
