Not the stock WRX projector, he purchased 07 sti stock projectors. It does look very good.

I've seen pictures where the output bows up like that, and nudging it the right way (down?) a millimeter supposedly corrects it. A nudged HID bulb due to the D2S-->AMP adapter might also do that.
I'm trying to decide what projector to use in my headlights, I've already done a retrofit with mini d2s projectors and they are pretty sub par compared to other OEM projectors. Do you have any info of RX330s or RX350s fitting in our housings?

The OEM sti projector route seems like a decent option too, but it usually isn't mentioned in the retrofitting forums so I'm assuming FX-Rs or RX___ would perform better.
