Or maybe it's your neon underglow kit...they might be flashing you hoping you'll lose control of your car and spin off the road, damaging the led kit beyond the point of repair.

Judging from your recent posts, I'd flash you (high beams and the finger) with no problem.

Wow, i didn't even see this thread until now. Another classic thread by Mr. Styles. What makes these people "peons?" Is it just because they flash their lights at you? Maybe your HIDs are horribly out of focus and are directly in their eyes blinding them. You'll never stop getting flamed until you start posting some sensible posts. It may even be too late to redeem yourself now.

You do realize xenon lights have a different beam patter than normal lights right? My guess if you have them leveled like conventional lights, you need to aim them more down and to the right since you are putting more power out than conventional so the light beam goes further and brighter...
