Default T/A Guage Bezel

So today i was at the grand opening of a new junk yard and i came across a trams am so i grabed the guage bezel for the Z just wondering if anyone else has put these on there cars. I wanted to paint it but i cant seem the get the clear plastic off. If any one has any pics it would be nice to see some different ideas of what can be done thanks.

Yup, pretty much every person with aftermarket white or silver gauge overlays uses the TA bezel, simply because it looks better than just flat edges separating the gauges. The vendors that sell overlays typically include the bezel in the price. Very common thing.

Yup, I have a bezel installed but kept the stock instrument face because I don't want silver/white in the car. A good idea, if you have the cluster pulled out and want to, is to swap the lights while you're at it. I'm waiting on some LEDs... hence the reason I'm driving around the base without a speedo. SHH!
