just throwin it out there... cuz i know there have been attempts to make these kinda headlights but i know alot of people thought they were ugly...what if somebody fabbed it to where OUR blinker was the actual headlight with that "beam" so our H.I.D's would look better and our PRESENT headlight acted as big blinker lol...the only thing I see wrong with this is the headlight case having that rough part...and MAYBE the blinker lookin kinda awkward....I'm just throwin this idea out there soo lemme know what ya think!
Like i said...i was bored...

Well you'd still use the bigger area as your highbeams.. then the smaller inside area as your HID low beams

it doesnt blink already? i thought those did.. hmm that's exactly the solution then. blinker, then the bigger as your brights, and the inside smaller area as the projector for your HID's.

i don't think its gunna work. companies actually spend alot of time making headlights and stuff so they reflect the light at certain angles and stuff. the headlight its self has been designed to "spray" the road full of light. where as the blinker, was most likly designed just to be a blinker, plus the plastic on the outside of the headlight, will just distort the light.
