Best HID Halo's?

Hey,

Looking to get a set of 8k HID halo's but just wondering what is better the Alpine or Camaross?

I've heard of some flickering with the Camaross is this true? has anyone experienced that with the Alpine's? Also what's the Price Difference?

sorry to bring up an old thread.. (newb here) ...On this alpine kit, is there any cutting that needs to be done to the headlight covers? if so, does it have leaking problems that could fog up the lights and cause adaptive headlight failure??
