Rally Dash Bezel. Restore or Buy Repo?

IMO - not that I have any first-hand experience w/ the repop bezels - But I would sell the original one you have and buy the repo one. Look at it this way: The bezel cost you X amount of $, and now you have to shell out more $ for resto. If it'll cost the same $ to restore as compared to buying a new set, sell the original, and put that $ toward the new repo set.

Now that's just me - people put so much stock into buying and keeping every piece of the car original as if that'll actually have an impact on the value of the car. That thing really only applies to concourse-quality resto jobs that I would guess only applies to less than 1% of the restoration hobby. Original parts are always nice, but technically it's not the original bezel anyway if your car didn't roll off the assembly line with it.

From what I've seen, the repop bezels are pretty darn indistinguishable from the originals, so someone would be hard-pressed to identify it as a repop once it's installed in your car.
