Talking ReAiming my headlights.

So yea as you know I bought LEDs for my car along with crappy normal likes for my parking lights. And i dropped my LED in my car and its not able to be retreived and its def desttroyed by now. So I got the old bulbs, and my mom is and art teacher so she has these really expensive permanent markers that are actually paint, so i decided to paint the cheap bulbs orange. I tried em and Im satisfied although its ghetto lol. I just need to put another coat of the paint on it and it will be fog light orange. So my question is can I aim my high beams lower, so they arent really high beams, and I have cheap bulbs for my high beams so i was going to paint them orange too, so now the high beams parking lights and the turn signal lights would all be the same orange color. And I was just gunna drive with my high beams on so all of my lights are on. I was rading in the manual how to aim the lights and Im not sure if thats for the high beams low beams or both at the same time.. Any help is awesome! Thanks
