Bezels For Chrome Hoops
Looking to see what kind of bezels or rings did you guys used to put around the chrome hoops that go behind the seats. Please let me know where you got them also.

Chrome plastic plumbing trim rings from Lowe's or Home Depot. The inner opening will have to be enlarged slightly to fit

I had the plastic 1-1/2" trim rings that go around domestic radiator piping sprayed to match the interior, but didn't like the color match. bought a new carpet piece and was much more careful in trimming it. No bezels anymore. Think that you can see them in the interior pic in the sig.

I used chromed (plastic) plumbing trim rings. They're OK but I'd like to find something smaller in diameter.

Cut the carpet correctly and you won't need them. Think they look better w/o rings anyway. Looks like factory that way.

Unfortunately one of the cuts didn't come out that great.
Thanks for the info guys!
