Default 6LE/McNord Gauge Bezel... New style, check it out!

Well, many of you have seen the artwork bezel that McNord adds to the overlay for us...

No Bezel...



Bezel...



I like it, but I knew I would like a real world bezel better SO, I had McNord send me the layer that is the bezel, I got it transferred into a dxf file and reproduced it in 1/4" textured ABS (same as the Trans-Am bezel)...















THIS WAS STRAIGHT OUT OF THE WATERJET MACHINE. What you receive will be cleaner (deburred, etc...) We have to tweak it some from the layer McNord sent as it is off in some places but since it is just circles it is as easy as centering it. The bottom parts will be cut also to clear the factory (Camaro) bezel (cluster lens).

Pics are bad because I had to snap them with my phone before I left (had to leave the red overlay there for him to work off of). You get the idea though. These can be painted any color you want (since they are thick ABS any local paint shop can spray them or you can do it yourself) and also since it is 1/4" deep it REALLY gives it a "gauge" look as opposed to a "gauge cluster" look.

They can be attached with 3M spray adhesive or for something less permanent you could just used double sided tape...

I cut these out of scrap splitter ABS so I can sell them cheap. I'll probably sell for $40-$45 shipped (depending on my final price) BUT for a few pioneers I'll offer a PRE-ORDER right now for $30 shipped paypal'd to madelisle@yahoo.com with 6LE Bezel in the note.

I can also do these in stainless steel for $50 shipped.

I'm only posting the pre-order here, I'll delete this and make a real sale thread soon...

Tweaks will be finished this week but anyone who gets in on the pre-order won't pay anymore money and will be shipped by the end of next week

this one looks real good. The aftermarket overlays always looked like they were missing something.

Nah, stainless would basically be flat but if you want depth you could put it on top of the abs one and you could get the GTO effect...

IS there anyway we could get these a little wider/thicker (not deep wise) but width of the pieces when looking at it straight on.

Id like to get something like that then bevel it and sand it smooth to look similar to the GTOs.
pic for example

Pretty sure they should. They are based off of it...
