Got rid of the swirling speaker reflections
I'm talking about the light reflections in the windshield, caused by the black but _shiny_ rings around the speakers on the dashboard.
I would never by a car with a dashboard in a lighter colour because I know it will reflect up in the windshield. So I was a little disappointed to see that the black speaker "rings" was casting swirling light reflections up in the windshield when passing under street lights.
Now I have fixed that ergonomically poor design with an add-on (shown below, before and after). (I made my own non-gloss ring and put on top of the original.) Maybe not as nice but it works a lot better

I kind of like the swirls, lol. I can see how they can be annoying as they definitely caught my eye the first time I drove my car.
But awesome job, looks clean.
