I'd be careful adjusting the headlight angles, especially if you're adjusting them to point further up. It's a safety issue (potentially blinding oncoming drivers) and the headlight settings are very carefully adjusted. It's possible that they've come out of alignment, but if you're adjusting them, you should be more precise about the angle than just eyeballing it.

Is this your first car with HID lights? If so, you just might not be used to the sharp cutoff in the light pattern. All low-beams are meant to point at the road. Old-style halogen lamps don't have as sharp of a light pattern as HIDs do, so more of the light ends up straying from the main beam and projecting higher than it should. But the stray light from halogens isn't very intense, so if you adjust your HIDs to mimic that pattern, you'll blind everybody coming at you.
