Perhaps helpful for future diagnosing of a problem (applies to anything):

Root cause: The fault that created a chain of events leading to a failure
End Result/Resultant Damage: Anything that failed along the way, up to and including the final failure.

In your case, it's likely that the Root cause of the fault is a missing Splash sheild.
The splash shield allowed water to be sprayed at the ballast/plug whenever it was raining out.
Water damage is Resultant Damage
The water caused a short in the plug/ballast, also resultant damage
The ballast failed due to this short, also Resultant damage.

So we start from the End result (ballast blown) and work our way back examining all the stuff along the way, until we get to the splash sheild.

Seeing this form of trouble-shooting, it's easy to see why putting an HID kit on will not fix the Root cause of the issue.
We need to find the root cause, fix it, then fix all the resultant damage.

Of course, at this point, the above is all speculation, because the diagnosis isn't done yet

 

Let me know if you need pads, I have some that I probably wont use

 

LOOK GUIZE at what i bought for 400 what you guys think? tpms sensors came and all the lugs came with it too. but i need to replace the tires any one know how much that is going to run me per tire?

 

I can't see the picture but I hope you aren't talking about the 18" sedan sport wheels

 

no they are 19's i made sure i found a better deal on them but they have nissan center caps?
glad i didnt buy the 18's

 

Good, they are the rays eng oem ones? Good find, I paid more for mine

 

yes im pretty sure they say forged on them. can you see the picture now? and any idea on how much the tires are going to cost me?

 

I paid about 1200 for my tires

 

i didnt realize tires were so pricey


and here is the pic with forged

 

They look good, yes tires are pricey but the difference in cost for the same tire in an 18 wouldn't be that much cheaper. I use continental dw. Tires aren't something to cheap out on

 

yea idk i think i might just buy a set of used tires to save money

 

Well shop around first. You could certainly do cheaper than I did. I live in Canada so I have to pay more for everything. The real problem is that its an uncommon wheel size. 18 and 20 are both more popular, 19 is probably the least popular reasonably size wheel diameter. And yet it seems to be nissans favorite
