I can afford either of these.
Does anyone have a problem with visibility at night with their low beams in a New Edge SN95? I was driving my dads tonight and it just reminded me that I have to use the brights just to really see. The low beams seem to be pointed into the ground while the highs seem like what the lows should be.

The bulbs and stuff are all stock too. The car was hit a year ago, and in the process had the driver side headlight housing completely ripped out. Is it possible the new housing is terribly misalligned? Or that the header panel was not replaced/put on wrong after the wreck?

Am I just expecting too much, or are these below normal standards?

The stop sign and street light in the pix below are 70-75 yards away. I estimate the headlights to be effective for about 100 feet, barely. They were taken from the drivers seat, with the camera sitting on top of the wheel

Here's the pic, first is edited, second is original. They were taken with a cell phone camera too, if it matters

You could always ask the shop to adjust those or the alignment bolts on the headlight it self.
