A vehicle light fixture includes: a reflector having a reflection surface; and a light source emitting light toward the reflection surface. The light source includes a first light emitting unit emitting light for low-beam light distribution, and a second light emitting unit emitting light for high-beam light distribution. The first light emitting unit is located at a focal point of the reflection surface. The second light emitting unit is located forward of the first light emitting unit, and is disposed so as to be offset from the first reference line toward a hot zone side of a low-beam light distribution pattern formed by light from the first light emitting unit on a screen. The first reference line extends through the focal point in the front-back direction. The reflection surface is formed in a surface shape that forms the low-beam light distribution pattern using light from the first light emitting unit.

A trim component, such as a grill of a vehicle, includes a substrate having a 3-dimensional shape and defining a disrupted reflective surface including a plurality of facets over a curved surface. Each of the facets is configured to reflect an incident light beam in a common direction, for example, toward a given target. A reflective coating, such as a chrome plating layer, overlies the disrupted reflective surface. The facets may have similar shapes and/or be arranged in a repeating pattern, but with one or more irregular features. The sizes, shapes, and/or orientation direction of the facets may varying in a gradient based on the curvature of the curved surface. The trim component also includes a light source to illuminate the disrupted reflective surface. The light source may be hidden so it is not directly visible to a viewer, but instead is reflected by the disrupted reflective surface.

Vehicle headlamp having light guide

A light guide includes first and second input portions, first and second light emitting portions and a mixing portion. The mixing portion extends between the first input portion and the first light emitting portion, and between the second input portion and the second light emitting portion. Light generated by a first light source is guided from the first input portion toward the first light emitting portion, and light generated by a second light source is guided from the second input portion toward the second light emitting portion. The mixing portion is configured to receive light guided from the first input portion toward the first light emitting portion and configured to receive light guided from the second input portion toward the second light emitting portion.
