Yeah word on those is they're crap until an actual member tests them and reviews them.

From the guy that showed them off, it sounded like a sales pitch, and the projectors were purposely made to look like a face so the cut-offs were tilted to a "V" so they'd end up blinding all aspects of traffic.

We're waiting for another person to get them so we can see if the cutoff is that way, and if its fixable.

it's the line created by the glow of the headlights on oncoming objects. at a certain point the beam of light stops and creates a solid line, known as a "cutoff".
