Rally Dash Bezel. Restore or Buy Repo?
I bought one of the reproductions about a year ago and although it`s pretty and shiny, there`s a lot to be improved upon with the actual casting of the piece. Contours on the back side of the bezel are obvious on the front. The paint job is not that good, peeling off around areas like the lighter and radio opening. Do not use masking tape around the paint as it will remove any paint it contacts. The fit is not that great either, shaving and grinding areas to get things to go together correctly is necessary. The complete piece with lenses will set you back just under 700 bucks where a good replating and lens polishing should cost just under 500. The bottom line, in my opinion, is to get your original replated by a quality plating service. You won`t be sorry.
