painting
any one got any ways I could paint a bezel? I was thinking like a silver or crome something like that. I was looking at modle paint. do you think it would work? should I put a primer then paint? thanks.

guess I didnt realize they didnt have chrome or silver seems like if you rough it up some then use chrome paint it would work pretty well but maybe someone else has a better idea

use some adhesive promoter if you paint it, that should help a bit.

Instead of painting, you can get silver ones on e-Bay pretty cheap. (most of the time) Just have to keep checking and they come up just about every week. That is where I got mine. Just like new. $18.00 plus ride. It even came with one new vent. Just make sure you get the right one. Later models has the wiper on colum and I believe before '81 the wiper was on the bezel. If this is for the '79 it will be on the bezel.
