I like the design of these new ones (non-blindspot), but not in love with the way the printed lenses look.

BUT... I keep going back and comparing to your original set... :) I'm liking that one more I think, more original looking (like you said, the new ones keep getting close to oracle)

I agree, I still love the original set...

I think I can make them blind spot capable...

I'm going to redesign those with my new base as well soon.

I respect all your work, but I too am being drawn back to the original design.

The newer design is looking too much like the Oracle ones, which I have never been a fan of. Just MY opinion though.

Again, all in all, amazing work!

Maybe go something a little old-school mixed with new school

I don't have photoshop and am shite for 3 rendering at the moment, so here is a MS Paint butcher job of what I think would be a great alternative. Gives more backup light to the rear but keeps the red lines that I really like with your design. I carried the white lens straight down and widened the middle red a bit to try and match the border thickness.

Printing prototype of the new original design now so I can get measurements for side markers and mount location for light bracket

I like these the best so far

I like them the most too right now. I wonder if just a single vertical would be better for the reverse and have the tail light be the full ring.

Are you making a new reflector in the bumper?

That would be very simple. Might give that a shot...

No, I removed them... I have oracle's bumper lights sitting at the barn now to install lol.

Would it be possible to incorporate a backlit OIIIIIIIO in the large blank section?

You definitely nailed the contours... Looks great!
