Hi Tom, this is what I already try to do - mention this forum,etc. So you can count me in on that. Anyway, you have alot of work with this, so I can also pay the stuff and you can maybe use this money to pay some Google ads to make the forum more visible. Just as an idea.
That's great. Thank you so much. And thanks for the offer to pay, much appreciated, but it's really not about the money for me, and I fear I could never keep up if I offered them to the public at a reasonable price! For the short-term anyway, I like the idea of making them special perks for folks who are embracing Carpokes and helping it grow.
Understood - so I‘ll try to support as mich as I can.

Thanks and I hope is doesn't sound like I'm asking anyone to jump through hoops. There have been some who post once asking for a full set and then don't even reply when it's ready, so I'm mostly just trying to ensure the time I spend on these is well-spent in general, and well-spent in terms of building the community.

I would love to have the bezel in Bordeaux red with base coat.

My porsche dealer has an taycan for the own showroom on order. After the accident they offered me the taycan because iam a good costumer. I had 4 days to decide and change the configure to my taste .

From order to delivery will take exactly 1 month

@APRisti -- yours is ready -- please PM to make arrangements.
@Robert986 -- yours is ready -- please PM to make arrangements.
@VA_CT -- yours is ready -- let's find a time/place; I owe you a PM....
@Mike992 --yours has been ready for a while -- last call.

@Michaelx, @Nine finger Porsche, @ggsf, and @sliksunny: you each requested a full set of covers. I'm offering the Sports Chrono bezels for free as a calling card for the site. The tach and mode dial covers are much more time consuming (with lower success yield) so in fairness to those waiting, I am limiting full sets to active carpokes members (per post #298 in this thread). I'll be thrilled to make you each a full set, but I'd want to see you on the site, posting, setting up avatars, telling friends, etc. in order to offer up a full free set. This is a community-building perk, and nothing would make me happier than to see you become part of the community with a full set of bezels.

@Tom — Thanks Tom. I like to make arrangements but not sure how to use the PM function. Please PM me so that I can reply you directly.

Have you done a carbon fiber bezel? As I’m on the fence, as I agree with your comments about cartoonish. That may be the best direction to consider.

These are awesome looking! Add me to the list for a shark blue set for my GT3!

Snotdoc · #358

Also, in an earlier post someone referenced a RustOleum paint color that was a dead ringer for Shark Blue. Mind sharing that?
Thanks!

New to the Porsche world with first 911/ p car and this is the first forum I joined. I’ll definitely be active going forward. Went on vacation as soon as I created this log in. Will add avatar and become more active as time goes. Thanks

Welcome to Carpokes! What a great picture!! We need to see more of that car! Rustoleum Sail Blue is the color that seems to be a very close match. See post #111 in this thread for a picture of a bezel painted in that color sitting on a Shark Blue car.... I'll put you on the next update of the wait list.

Snotdoc? ENT Doctor?
