Dual Gauge steering bezel

No resin, fiberglass or bondo was used.
Very solid and flexible, Near factory color match, No evidence that the pods were molded on, looks like one solid part, Many hours was put into this so the price is firm @ 210.00 obo/trades for street/hardcore sway bar,suspension parts(no springs), torque damper or interceptor, but if your looking to get this bezel I doubt your selling a interceptor lol.

Well thanks and I guess Im open to offers within reason, Just remember this is not something just any body can make, its takes knowledge and craftsmanship, It took me over 2 weeks to make and thats working any where from 2 to 5 hours a day AFTER my real job and college.

I hear you brother, Cash is really weak on my side with school and very little hours at a job that pays little/ Which is why I do custom work, to pay off bills not pour into my car unfortunately.

yep this is something that NO ONE understands. i build all of mine on my spare time. i have a 2-5 week turn around because im so busy...im approaching week 4 on one and i feel bad for the guy lol...soon he will get it i just am slammed with a full time job plus this plus a girlfriend etc etc.

big difference between mine and yours are mine are recessed more.

exactly, no one understands the work...And I plan to make one more flush, this is literally the 1st one, and I used a glow shift boost gauge as a measure so Im sure for the interceptor and a wide band or any other short gauge(or remove the studs on the gauge), I could probably knock it back another 1/4in. Due to the work involved and having my car apart to fit them, I only plan on making 3 more and thats it, hopefully enough to pay off the discover card And kudos to you man, This is an art and Craftsman are a dying breed.

appreciate it...interceptor fits with no mods..... for warning...AEM NEEDS THE PVC OR ABS PLASTIC PIPE OR WHATEVER YOU USE TO BE SHAVED DOWN INSIDE otherwise its EXTREMELY tight.

also tip of advice to ANYONE that gets these.... do not buy a mechanical boost gauge and try sticking it in there lol. i offer brackets with mine if people trust me enough to send the gauge.

No problem, Im aware of the AEM after reading another thread on these, but why not the mechanical boost? Vac line pinches? Cause the mech I used seem to fit perfect.

Yea I have seen it, why do you think mine isn't flush lol, I designed this bezel around a mech boost gauge, I will have to look tomorrow to see if the hose clears, if not a brass 90* in place of the straight barb should do the trick

yep kinda figured that. the kid wanted a single bezel so they look stupid as hell if they stick out.... i just drilled a hole right through the cluster(you have perfect amount of room to do it without interferring with the gauge)to avoid any pinches lines. gauge fit perfect and everything it was when i put the line on, and screwed the retainer for the line in when it didnt fit. pain

if people are doing these for less then 250 with a supplied bezel its a joke if you ask. sorry BUT if you really want to get a shop to build these lets break down the math....custom labor rates are anywhere from 80-104 an hour around here ive seen. they take roughly 10-15 hours of completion the way i do them due to filler setup, glue setup, A TON of sanding, and because i dont use spray paint it adds to the time...plus primer and sanding the primer etc etc etc......do that math everyone and quit your bitching....just shows how delta owners are complete cheap asses and want the best parts for nothing. its like some other dude that makes these things on here....slowbalt06 or some ****....hot glues them together...apparently they dont fit for ****, rattle cans them. charges 100 bucks...i loled when i heard that.

not to mention my dash....you think i would charge anyless then 1k? yeah right.
