Question for those who lowered their car

I just lowered my car w/ Comptech Springs last weekend and I noticed that my HID headlights don't seem to brighten what's in front of me as much as before. I feel that the headlights are aiming lower now than before. Does anyone else agree with me? Is there a way to adjust the HID's?

Not sure on the comptech springs but on my H&R's the fron was lowered more than the rear so HID's hit a little lower than they used to.

already posted on this - and yes, I did have my headlights readjusted by the dealer - it takes specialized equipment or a flat surface with a wall.

Question

would bimmer's self leveling system for the HID's be able to compensate for lowering the car's height? does the TL-S have this feature?

yes, bimmer self-leveling HID system would be able to compensate and no, unfortunately the TL/TL-S does not have this feature . our cars are not allowed on the autobahn in germany cuz of this. germany requires that hid lights be self-leveling.
