Let someone from the community design the RLCS7 LAN Reward Wheels

The Issue

Since the release of the "Decennium Pro" wheels in Season 3, Psyonix has created hype for their LAN events with an exclusive in-game wheel if you attended.  In Season 4, Psyonix unveiled the "Sovereign Pro" wheels for attendees of the DC LAN.

Unfortunately, after Season 4 we began to see some lack of creativity when Psyonix released "Sovereign A/T" wheels as part of their RL Beach Blast crate.  Some members of the community were upset because it was an extremely similar wheel to the exclusive "Sovereign Pro" that was given to LAN attendees, making them less special for those who went.  

Season 5 wheels were unique, but unfortunately due to a system error, every single user received the "Mothership" wheels in their inventory, and Psyonix was forced to create an exclusive "Mothership Pro" wheel that was a Titanium White painted version to keep the attendees of LANdon happy.
 
Season 6 saw the release of the Aero Mage wheels as a Fan Reward for tuning into Official Rocket League streams of RLCS.  Many people have acquired different painted versions of these wheels and enjoyed using them. Once the news broke out that the LAN reward wheel was just another painted version of a wheel that was already released, many people were confused, as they assumed these reward wheels were supposed to be exclusive as they are supporting the scene by attending the LAN.

That being said, "Aero Mage Pro" wheels are actually quite nice as they are one of the first wheels in Rocket League to feature a gradient paint finish, which gives them quite a bit of exclusivity and clout.

Unfortunately, Psyonix has released the "Decenium" (Only 1 "N" this time?) as a new Fan Reward for watching the RLCS streams.  Luckily, the "Decennium Pro" wheel set has a very attractive paint finish with a golden shine animation around the wheels, highlighting their exclusivity, but yet another blow to those who attended the LANs in the early seasons by releasing a variation to the public. 

Season 7 has proved to be no different, and honestly this has to be the laziest design choice I have seen yet.  Instead of creating an exclusive new wheel design for those attending the New Jersey RLCS7 LAN, Psyonix thought it would be a better idea to just give everyone a "Titanium White Ninja" wheel, a reward wheel available from June 2, 2017 to January 28, 2018 from watching an official stream.  See that design here: https://i.imgur.com/D44Hf8B.png They went back almost 2 years to grab a design they had already put into the game, just to re-release it as an "exclusive item" for LAN attendees.  Here is the original "Ninja" wheel, painted titanium white: https://i.imgur.com/psRfYll.jpg  If you squint, you legitimately cannot tell the difference.  This is just depressing.

If you haven't noticed, the subreddit /r/RocketLeague has had a contest going on in the past week called #WheelDesignChallenge.  I think that Psyonix can actually make things right after their lazy decisions by choosing someone's design from the subreddit and implementing that into the game as the LAN reward.  I don't care how long it takes, I just don't want to receive a duplicate wheel that I already have with almost 0 change to the original.
