RX350 HID projector retrofit

Hi guys. I have a 2015 blizzard pearl prius 3 and this is my first major mod. Even though the stock halogen projectors were pretty good with plug and play H11 HIDs, I wanted my headlights to be even better. I originally wanted to go with the morimoto D2S 4.0s with shield mod but my retrofitter said it would be hard to make it fit. I then said ok, how about the G5-Rs? They said still similar bolt pattern to the D2S. They suggested the RX350s which I already knew would be a bolt on for our cars. I did my research on those a while back and they were just ok on video. But I thought maybe it's just the camera isn't catching the true output. So I went ahead and went with those.

Couple weeks went by and I finally got them back. Installed it and it just did not live up to my expectations. Compared to other cars on the road with oem hids, it seemed very dim. I was expecting a glob of lit road 40-50ft in front of me but that wasn't the case. Maybe I was expecting too much out of this projector? I even went out and got 50w ballast and it's barely brighter. Honestly, this has a better cutoff and color but I think my stock headlights were brighter.

They look good and bright off the wall and in dark areas with light colored roads but it seems dim while driving with city lights. I won't name my retrofitter but they are highly respected pros and I don't doubt their work. I aimed the lights at 25ft, left side of step 2 inches below the center height of headlights. Spent a ton of money and I'm not happy. Maybe it's something i'm doing wrong?

Mods: RX350 bixenons tuned with STI-R clear lense, Morimoto xb35/55w ballast, Philips White Vision D2S bulbs, Morimoto HD relay harness.
