Once in a while I'll get flashed at. Thought maybe because of the Silverstar replacement bulbs But at the same time I know I've passed a few cops and have never had any trouble so not too worried.

on my 08 the headlights were way off and we got flashed from on coming traffic on the way home from the dealership and even weeks after. we took it in and had them adjusted and then i adjusted them more. there are some screws on the headlight bezel that you can adjust the direction the beam aims.

Replacing the stock reflectors was one of the best mods I have done to date. Light output is so much better and I only get bright lighted when loaded down heavy. I went with Cibie's.

Man it happens anytime we travel north up the 395 in California...drives us fuckin' crazy! I think we've been flashed more in our JK than I ever was in my 3/4 lifted Silverado. Currently we are running the oem headlamps with PIAA Super White bulbs but I'm hoping when we go to the IPF's some of that will crap will stop!
