Our BGTS will have yellow gauges…wondering the same thing and think black bezels might be best.Bob Z wrote: Thu May 05, 2022 9:53 am I like my Black one though since I have a Yellow SC gauge face so it would be too much Yellow, but I will contact you offline in regards to what I am thinking.

Well the sports chrono bezel for the 718 may be a while still, but we're very close to this for the 718/991 drive mode knob...

Not in the Spyder? Interesting. I also saw a GT4 recently with no Sports Chrono. The 718 mode dial is the same (I think) as the 991, so there should be oodles of takers once I have it perfected. Prototype should be on its way to Larry for testing this week.Bob Z wrote: Tue May 17, 2022 7:25 pm Nice work Tom, I wish they put a drive mode knob in the Spyder...loved the look and a Yellow one would have been cool - I had a Miami Blue one in my Targa GTS.
I have the SC of course, that has a great looking bezel, but no mode dial attached to the steering wheel. There are no drive modes in the Spyder though so that explains it.Tom wrote: Tue May 17, 2022 7:33 pmNot in the Spyder? Interesting. I also saw a GT4 recently with no Sports Chrono.

Well done Tom! I’m in for one in yellow when ready for prime time and it will look great in our BGTS.

Was it a painted bezel or bezel cover? If painted bezel, how easy was it to snap off the knob?Bob Z wrote: Tue May 17, 2022 7:25 pm Nice work Tom, I wish they put a drive mode knob in the Spyder...loved the look and a Yellow one would have been cool - I had a Miami Blue one in my Targa GTS.
