Looks awesome, I would lose the halos though if it was my decision.

Its not going to really affect performance that much at all, and if you keep trying to change it you are just going to strip those little screws and create a much bigger headache. How do the high beams look?
High beams are awesome, it's like having a whole different vehicle. It's not even fair to compare stock, HID in stock, halogen projectors...anything to this. It's a totally different experience, you don't blind the guy in front of you at a light, but you can see for a mile or more on a dark highway with high beam... Its just a totally different level of lighting.

As for a write up... I ordered another set to do my boss's truck.. I will do a full write up pic-by-pic on that one. From taking the bulbs out, taking the lenses off, etc... I'll post it on here.
