Dennis went from a forum superstar to forum superdouchebag...very sad since he was one of the best options we had in audio.

I had a bezel from Dennis and replaced it with a bezzzel from Vettenutts! In my opinion it's the best option. Great quality and fitment. It is worth whatever I paid for it and I don't remember what that was because the end results far exceeded the one that I got from Dennis.

Great. Thanks! I’ll look into them. Anyone I should ask for or just go to the website? I also have a non standard taupe interior bezel because have 24 Lemans Commemorative edition. Do VetteNuts do custom colors or only standard black?

Taupe -- or maybe 'shale'? Just looked at their website, and they list both black and shale now:

Interesting. I see that. 2004 commemorative edition interior code is actually shale, however that shale on Vette nuts site looks like a much lighter color like light oak. Need to call them tomorrow and talk with them. Thanks.

Will do. Vette nuts says the shale version posted on the website was the lighter shade of shale, as in the color of the carpet and seat for the shale color code. Says he has the correct darker shale that he will post soon. Also says he is working on on putting together head unit packages to go with the bezel, so I am waiting to see what they post before buying the bezel.
