So far in X5SND's findings, the shield actually needs to be tilted BACKWARDS carefully on all sides towards the bulb itself in order to sharpen things up and enhance color output along the cutoff line.
I am theorizing that this difference from what I perceived in Lightwerkz install where he most likely picked the shield FORWARD towards the lens in order to get his sharpness, is because he used an H3 rebased bulb, which is longer in focal length than a halogen H3, whereas myself and X5SND are both using H3C rebased bulbs from TRS which are basically exactly copies of a true H3 bulb in terms of height of capsule, focal point in the center, etc. This may be why he has found so far that for our version of rebased HID bulbs that the shield needs to be tipped backwards towards the bulb hole in order to sharpen/increase color.
I bought a set of picks from harbor freight for a buck, one is a 90 degree angle and 1 is a rounded hook, I will do some experimenting over the weekend hopefully.
