    We're working with our supplier to offer vehicle-specific LED rings that aren't just standard fiberglass like our competitors. These will be aluminum-backed and white when off regardless of color just like our current xB rings:

    Would you have interest in a full ring like this, or maybe just the outer piece?

    We have free reign over this project, so let us know what you think!

    I don't have a 12+ but I think this would look the best.
    Disregard the black line I just tried to cover up the yellow line from your picture.

    If it's just out of those pictures I like the simpler one. The outline is a little much.

    I like all the ideas, but more than anything I am interested in either switchback or multi-color design. I like having options. Maybe the outer edge design in switchback would be pretty functional. or maybe xb halos in switchback design;)

    The switch back idea would be nicer with the outline at the top

    Just by looking at the ideas that ONEBAR and S1ck S0n made. It may be possible to flip it and use it on the other side. (same piece used on the upper edge of passenger headlight can be used on the lower edge of the driver headlight.) Gives people the choice. Gotta figure out measurements though.

    Nowhere near enough people interested, so it will not be pursued.
