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.
Our BGTS will have yellow gauges…wondering the same thing and think black bezels might be best.

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...

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.

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.

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.

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?
