    Looks great! Wish there was a way to tone down the big white halo ring(when off) and still retain maximum light transmission. Guess we can't have it all..

    When it is OFF. The white phosphorus coating they use takes away from the blacked out look.(my opinion). I know every manufacture does it..I just wish there could be a blacked out halo, yet still be bright. Guess I can't have my cake and eat it too..:angrygirl:

    Gotcha! I think that's why a lot of people go with the rear halos for that reason. Only way I could think to hide is using a tinted diffuser but then it would just be bulky as hell
