Default Billet Aluminum Dash Bezel

Got the gauges picked out I think for the dash project. . I downloaded the ones I want off the net, sized em' to the specs on the site & printed the faces out on the printer. Then I cut some PVC gauge housings on the CNC. They are a little deeper than the actual gauges but that'll insure I have ample room for the real deals down the road. Now I can make a bezel. That outta' keep me busy for awhile.


Cut the bezel out on the CNC. There's a bunch of steps to get this thing cut. I keep thinkin' one BooBoo & it's scrap. :shock:



Got the bezel off the table. Now comes the task of bending it in the right places & at the correct angles to fit the dash.



Got it roughed into the dash cover. Still rough but close enough that I know it will fit. The right wing is 1/2" longer than the left wing, so angles are different. I think I got it purdy' close though. Next is to cut the contour in the fiberglass for the oversized tach & speedo.
{that's a relief}
