The top portion of the housing appears to be a little bit different with more of a metallic piece at the top than the current models.
I disagree. Look real closely. I think there may be a larger eyebrow to accentuate the "chop top" angle eyes. But the outboard light is larger and dips into the space currently occupied by the turn signal, which therefore, is now shortened towards the inboard side. Notice how the camo on the headlight turns upward between the two rings. The camo on the turn signal seems to be a couple of thin strips to allow the light through.
That would be good for the value of our cars. I know better than to question you on technical details.

While I appreciate the compliment, I'm just guessing here like everyone else.

I think yes the Turn signal will be with the eyebrow of the headlight because if you look at its place that is camoed it it like a lump its like there is no more that little gap where the turn signal is pushed in a little more than the Headlight...

Yes there is a "gap". But only for about 2/3 the width of the headlight from the grill. The camo is fooling you. Look at the white car, it's easier to see.

Yeah thats right! Then in this case it may stay in is place for "Xenon" equipped models and for models Equipped with Adaptive LEDs they'll be integrated with the eyebrow of the Headlight...

I'm liking those new headlights, I might just think of waiting to get the LCI M6GC instead of a 2015, and instead own something temporary (but fun ) in the mean time. Thoughts?
