That flat black color really makes it look good. Whenever you see them they're always painted some glossy color and look way out of place.

That looks great. I've been behind a couple past double din posts. And that might be one of the nicest installs ive seen. Please post or PM me a price. And if possible, maybe send me the contact info of the place that did it, to see if they'll replicate it. Awesome job!

it is actaully pretty easy to accomplish without a lot of difficult fiberglassing. You can use your stock setreo bezel and do this mod. you just need ALOT of patience and a LITTLE fiberglass skills.

You may wanna PM him, I actually emailed him through ls1tech to bring the questions in this thread to his attention... btw have you ever dealt with or heard of baileys? Because im considering having them replicate that bezel for me. That price sounds very reasonable. I'd trust your opinion over most on this forum, you've done some QUALITY work on the hawk.

Thank you! I'll give it a shot to see. I've really never dealt with Bailey's other than walking inside it. I'd rather order my stuff online for alot cheaper and install it myself. To me, it looks like an awesome job they did and for $100 that's definitely a good deal! If ya want, I'll look up the phone number for ya.

Np. Yeah I agree online is the way to go, and so far ive nearly done everything on my car myself. So I'll give the system a shot, but glass and molding and all that ... not my field. lol

And thanks but I actually dug it up online, its Baileys Auto Works right? lol otherwise, def hook me up with a number. I'll be calling the wrong place askin for custom bezels and gettin laughed at.
