part of why i thought the 9012's might be an issue was the amount of light spilling. with the standard bulb in a non projector lamp, theres a decent bit of spillage over the cut off. but with a 9012 even if perfectly aligned/ positioned in the lamp, what was acceptable spillage is now 50% brighter, and is no longer acceptable.
so if your working with 3x the light, anything above the cutoff is probably crazy bright to oncoming cars, even if the light has the same pattern
