Depending on how old your bulbs are just putting new bulbs will give more light.

Are your plastic headlight lenses in good condition? They should be crystal clear with no fogging.
The light output of my HID headlights increased dramatically after I sanded the lenses and refinished them with a kit from an auto parts store.
I wish had taken a photo of the lenses before I refinished them. I think they were in much worse condition than Blake's lenses shown in this thread:
