an impalas headlight housing is not designed to have that type of bulb inside of it. as a bulb like that tends to shine wide rather than straight ahead. reason being is those types of bulbs have to be in a projection capsule like this

It uses those bulbs and projects the light where it needs to go. the only impala that currently would support that is the 2014 impala. as they are now made with projection capsule headlight housing. Put back in your stock bulbs and it will fix the problem, the adjustment screws are not going to help, with the light as like i said, a 2002 impala is not designed to have those type of lights.
