You are a genius, Eran - a Generous Genius!

[@SternFX]

Thank you! I'm humbled and flattered

[@Xandercorp]

Nice tut. You can also used them corner settings, put the edge to convex/concave etc

[@SternFX]

Thanks! If you mean Bevel Style, then you can totally add this as well as well as override the colors to create more variation.

Hey! Great as always!
Just out of curiosity: With the advanced renderer, you could also use an 360° exr as reflection map and just choose it within the environment light; right? Didn't find the time to test it out though...

[@SternFX]

Thank you.
Yes! I'm actually showing this on my next tutorial coming up soon.
The only down side is that it takes forever to render. I tested it with this project and it went from 3 min (using C4D renderer) to 33 min (using Advanced Renderer) so I decided to not use it in this case.

acutely every time I try it i get confused and change to Element 3d :(

[@SternFX]

and I don't blame you, but those who doesn't have E3D it may be useful
