You are a much better painter than I am Tom...look at the job I did on the trim ring I sent you! For those of you that want Black ones be sure and paint it Satin Black, which matches the interior the best.

It helps that I've painted a hundred of them by now, and even 3D-printed little painting stands for them.

I'm interested in this too! In my CGTS, the stock bezel is a shiny aluminum finish, and you can see it's reflection in the windshield during the day. While it doesn't bother me most of the time, I still notice it more than I should.

Ok, for those looking for a hooded bezel, how about something like this:

That looks exactly how I envisioned it - nice work as usual Tom! And the reflection bothered me as a passenger last night - the wife piloted the Spyder home after our PCA Crown Region Holiday Party.

Again, looks OEM! Great job. @Tom Do you think that lends itself for leather wrapping?

Just to clarify, is this a hooded bezel or hooded bezel cover?

This one is based on the replacement bezel, but if there is interest in a clip on version with a glare hood, it should be an easy addition if/as/once we get a clip on version that works well. I'll print this mock-up and see about wrapping it in leather. I would think it can be done, but I'm not the leather expert around here

Classic 9 Leather recovered my sun visors so they should be the one you talk to them about whether leather wrapping is possible. I dealt with Andrew there and he was great and upfront on what they could do, cost, etc.
