WTB bezel in factory color - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

The bezel in my 69 GMC is showing it's age. I'd like to buy a replacement in the original color which is brown/copper color.

Who carries these?

Which bezel?

No one reproduces them. All you'll find is black or full chrome.

You should be able to make one though don't you think? Get an all chrome one and paint it that kind of Brown color? Just tape off the chrome edges. Good luck, Jeff.

Yea, it's the gage bezel for my 69. Longhorn, that confirms what I've found, although I have not been looking too long.
Jeff, I'll look into that, that may be my best option.
You would think that someone would do these bezels in colors like the dash pads. Oh well, thanks!

There isn't enough of a market to do all the GMC colors. I mentioned this when i was being interviewed at Brothers, just like an afordable and correct steel tool box door... it'll never happen.
