Once again with these cheap China made hid kits, you get what you pay for. They will keep burning out, this isn't the first thread made about this kit. It's not a faulty ground. If it was, your lights would flicker and you would notice that. That would cause the ballast to burn out over time but again you'd notice the flicker long before the ballast burned out.

You were badly ripped off if you paid 300 for that kit. I believe he sells them for 230-250 shipped. For a little over 300 you can buy quality Hella Gen 3 d2s ballast, a set of OEM Philip bulbs and H7/D2S spacers that would last much longer.
Nice car by the way.
