Dual Gauge Pod, Dual Aeroforce Install!!!

Just finish installing a dual gauge bezel and dual aeroforce interceptors in distilions SS/SC!
Sorry about the image quality cell phone pics


I was very impressed with the ease of install on these aeroforce gauges
15 minutes to install!!!
Heres a teaser of where the LC-1 Wideband will go...

What do you guys think?

Looks great. The bezel came out perfect. I love the cupholder gauge pod. Great idea.

So word on the street is you have 1 of those bezels to sell me.

Thanks man
You and about 100 others are in the waiting line
I thought about mass producing these but they are handmade and its not worth it.
Too time consuming and would cost too much!

No fiberglass need, infact fiberglass will be too britle to install the bezel without removing the steering wheel.
I use 2" ABS pipe and a special plastic bonding epoxy.

So you just slapped some tubing on there with epoxy to hold it and mold it and painted? HOWTO!

Supposedly they are just waiting on supporting vendor status.
I don't know if they have actually made them yet or not.

I'm ordering an upper grille from them once they become a supporting vendor.
I would like to grab a bezel too.

I think i'm just going to go the pillar route as much as I don't want to.

Yeah, I dont really want to do the pillar either, but maybe if I can cover that damn screw I will do it. Did you see the thread on fixing that screw up at the top?

Good call Johnboy12358 yep I saw that. Ever since that post was made I have leaning towards the pillar because it's available and that screw is fixed.

That is a nice easy fix, it looks great. I think it's Miller/Pillar time for me shortly.

Again congrats distillion and good job RED.

yeah the only thing that worries me is getting it matched. I wonder if anything that they carry (color wise) would be a match for the pillar. I really hope so, because sending it to CA, then waiting, and getting back some with the pain flaking off seems like alot of hoops to jump through

Yeah that is a lot to go through. They should fix it themselves.

Order a bunch of the caps, paint them and include 1 cap and 1 washer with every pillar.

Even if they UP the price by like $5 it's ok. I would rather it look clean.

We should make a protest thread.

EDIT: I already did. https://www.cobaltss.net/forums/showthread.php?t=52210

One of my buddies has the 3 pod pilar and it looks ok, but the top gauge won't fit in all the way!
I wish the gauges were more resessed but I guess they can't because of clearence issues.
