Default HIDs with tinted headlights

What would be the best bang for my buck with the HIDs? I saw on hidguy.net that they are around $125 and there's gotta be a reason they are so cheap. Something has gotta be missing.... Just some input from anybody who has done this. Thank you

$125 sounds right depending on what you are looking for.

I don't normally pay over $100 for a kit anymore. You do need to consider loosing your high beams if you aren't buying a bi beam kit. I have the tinted headlights from American Muscle and it looks sweet at night.

Ok thank you. I actually did the package deal from StangMods. It comes with my headlights and my fogs. $449 shipped so I figured not too bad. Shipping was free actually... But thank you for the advice!

Retro is the best and cheapest most complete kit on the market with the best lifetime warranty! I have a set in 5000K 55W and they are awesome.......still have not figured how to aim them as I see no set screw or anything.
