Beam Pattern for IVA

Decided to pull the car out and have a look at the beam patterns from the dominators.
Any idea if these will pass as is, I have heard that a flat beam can get through IVA.
The pattern doesn't seem quite horizontal. Is there a way to rotate?

Doing a bit of reading on furore's website.
It looks like mine have a right kickup which could fail.
So this mod might be needed
A: To the very best of my knowledge, yes, they are "E"marked & are described by the manufacturer as having a flat beam pattern, which has been OK for motorcycles for quite some time & recent regulations for cars under the IVA test state quite clearly that a flat beam pattern is acceptable. There is a quick modification which can be done which is to file a fresh slot about 13mm away from the existing one in the headlamp rim to rotate the beam pattern 15 degrees clockwise, this should give the required "kick up" to the LHS which should satisfy even the most stringent IVA tester
