Some of the GMC bezels are painted to match the interior colors. I have seen Blue, Green, Grey/Tan, and Brown ones.....

There are pictures of painted ones in the below threads.

Mine was painted completely black when I got it and the glove box door was sprayed with some bed liner so the textures matched. I hated it and sanded the glove box down and repainted it and have swutchtge bezel our for a new one

What bezel, dash? The whole thing, where they are chrome, the black area? It's all been done in many colors and looked good. Only you can decide if grey would look good. Or you could show a picture of you interior

I don't have any pictures but I painted mine in my 68 gray to match the 05 seats I put in. I also put in some plastic door panels from a 72 that were losing their black paint so I painted them gray too. I used some of that rattle can paint that's made for plastic. So far it's holding up pretty good (6 months). I plan to replace my cracked dash pad with a gray one too to make everything in the interior match.

I would just leave the bezel with the chrome around the edge and the glove box door black. I feel like if you painted everythingggg grey then it would give the truck a blan feel. But the truck is yours so it’s up to you
