Do your headlights have the "dust" look when your HID's are on?

It seems like there is dust buildup on the inside of my headlight's plastic lenses. Just wondering if you all had the same occurrence. And yes, the outside is clean

You can probably blow it out by pulling a couple of the bulbs and shooting some compressed air in there (like the stuff for cleaning computers.

Blowing in there may actually make matters worse. The dust would just go chaotic in the housing lol. But it's still not a bad idea so I may try that out.
