just a few pix.

1st one is has 2 holes cut out for gauges, as well as the right hand button and 3rd button deleted..( i dont have them so i 86's em lol)
Its primed, and painted gloss black with clear coat

2nd, has the 2 holes for gauges, but all the buttons are there, its also primed and painted black.

asking 50 shipped.

the 2nd one too longer b/c it was my first, idk i think i have bout 20 ~30 hrs in them, but i can also make them with buttons and no holes, in case u wanted o mount like an SAFC or zextronix WB or w/e

The are made from the stock one, so the buttons, and the whole unit mount stock., and theres 1/8 plastic and ~2-3 layers of FG, so its pretty stout.

If you want like a blank one, or differnt stuff done to it lmk, and ill see if i can do it. Thanx guys

*sorry for the crap qualityof the pic.. ill try and get some better ones..*

20-30 hours in each of those? holy shit dude...

I can see stress cracks in the 3 and 4 photo's around where the vent used to be and a lot of dust it looks like in the pics too.

I am not trying to harp down on your work buddy, but if I were to pay $50 for something like this, I dont want to see pics of the stuff cracked out already or all dusty.

1 of those bezes does have stress, that was my 1st one, and ive since fixed it, i just dont have a pic of it yet.
the 20-30 is from the learing curve...and it was only for 1..the 2nd 1 took much less time..
I also didnt smooth out the far left switch hole in the pick, but again, since been re-finished.

after i did that 1, and drove around with it, the solid motor mounts showed me where the weaknesses were in my process.

and dusty? come on..why would ne 1 car if theres dust on there? but FYI..the camera the pix were taken with is crap and i need to get some clearer shots, then ull be able to see the diff between, the stresses/cracked one and the new work.
