Those 'beauty' rings as you refer to 'em were an after-thought in order to use US-compliant 7" lights. They were only installed on north american cars, and only because they had to do something to fill the gap. The use of a chrome surround was a terrible decision. Where else on a 928 do you find chrome?
'Beauty rings' - yer killin' me!

Chrome plated PLASTIC trim rings the ONLY chrome on a (928 except for door lock bezels 1978) and the bulged up 7 inch sealed beam lights give it a flounder look....

That is one red 928 I'd love to call my own...one of very few!
I hope sometime when I'm in Waco (only once a year these days) I can make a trip down to stare awestruck at it
