Default Frenched headlight trim ring...

I got a frenched headlight trim ring for Christmas and was wondering what it will look like on a bike without a nacelle. Anyone got any pics (I would have put it on already but im still in Pennsylvania, and havent made it back to San Diego yet.) Thanks alot.

Chris

Chris, is this what you're looking for? I didn't take this picture specifically for this post (as you can see from the date stamp), but you can get an idea of how the headlight trim ring looks.

If you are talking about the one like T Mitchell has, then yes it will look a lot better.
I have the one with the visor and I love mine.
