I don't think Porsche has a "speed blue" paint. Do they? I know they have a speed blue thread, but that's the only thing I've actually seen in speed blue. Everything else (like paint and seat belts) seems to be Shark Blue, which is pretty darn close. I can have anything matched, but getting a good match for a piece of thread is probably pretty subjective.... Shark is pretty close, and I have that, if that might work?

No Speed Blue paint, they have the stitching that is Speed Blue.

Just updated the list, and you are on it. :)

Went to the post office today to send to @Vishal , @Bernd and @W5Hans ! Three others are ready to go (see list), and I should be able to knock out a few more on Friday. :)

Tom wrote: Thu Feb 24, 2022 7:01 pm I'll update the list tomorrow, and go back to the old location since I have plans for the space now occupied by the Olympic-rings version of the status link. In the meantime:

@OBXCKW Your bordeaux bezel is boxed up and going out in tomorrow's mail. Sent you a PM to cover the shipping.

@BenQCarCare Sending your black bezel in tomorrow's mail. The black looks pretty cool, but I had a spare Guards Red bezel handy, so included both in the box. :)

@VA_CT sent you a PM. Should be able to turn out a Bordeaux shortly for a local delivery.

@W5Hans Your bezel is done and looks good, but I didn't realize until just now that you wanted a mode dial knob cover too. I'll do that tomorrow, so should be able to send it all early next week. :)

@Mike992 and @Vishal -- your bezels are both ready to ship. I'll look in the morning if I have your addresses, but if you haven't already sent (or want to help me avoid searching), send me a PM with your shipping address.

@audi4t -- I was so close with your Python, but need to redo it over the next few days. The Python looks awesome but doesn't spray well in the cold, so the finish "turned" on me after the pictures I posted.

@APRisti SC bezel is ready, doing the tach ring this weekend. Sorry for the delay -- weather and family commitments got in my way.

Will update the rest of the list tomorrow. :)
Thanks Tom. Let me know when its ready so we plan the delivery.

Hi Tom,
Just registered ... I spent an hour looking at 32 pages of this thread, absolutely stunning!! :clap:
So may I ask you to add my wishes at the bottom of your list?
Color interior of my 992 is bordeaux (leather), ideally I would like 3 parts: Revs, Chrono and Knob if possible.
What you did for "myjc" is the same color I think. :)

Let me know what you want me to do next.

Be sure I will promote carspokes and your forum to my French's colleagues.

Thanks you very much in advance.

Hi and welcome to Carpokes -- the friendly Porsche forum! It will likely be a few weeks to get to your bezel(s) as I work through the list. Not sure if you saw my recent comment about only making the tach and mode dial covers for active carpokes members, but there's plenty of time to establish yourself here before I get out the paint. :)

Hi Tom, first of all, greetings from the Hometown of Porsche, Stuttgart!

You created an awesome forum and I absolutely love your bezels. I got a 992 C4S in white, would be great if you could produce me a white bezel set. Of course will pay for your shipment.

If anybody plans to travel to Stuttgart, I could help in providing Hotels, Restaurants, etc.

Best regards,

Michael
