Does anyone know If the stock head lights are projectors? I have an 08 3.5 se sedan...........I wanted to do an hid conversion but I don't want to be that butthole (people who have the brightest hids they could find,but they arent projectors) driving down the road blinding everyone that passes me ..........I know they aren't halos or anything I'm not an absolute idiot but I was thinking they could have been halogen projectors? If anyone knows an answer would be greatly appreciated

No they are jeweled reflectors. The first sedan with stock projectors is the 2013.

The 2008 3.5 SL and SE (with prem package) had HIDs with I think exactly the same reflector design. Not sure how hard it is to retrofit the factory HIDs on the models without HIDs.

Lately I've been seeing some of the 07 08 and 09s running around with aftermarket hids and they don't seem to be blinding anyone so I think ima go ahead and do it

Xentec or DDM are most used.
