I always loved those in Powermite's car, although he put alot of effort into his, and i don't think he'll be too happy now that the commoners can get our hands on something similar, hehe.
$150 is a fair price for me not having to do that myself, just wish it were a high priority on my car right now so i could get them.
Well, it's good that we're about the same price once he adds shipping costs, he's probably more expensive. Mine will only get cheaper the more I sell and reinvest into more sets too. Not worried.
BTW, where were all of these people that say they can get them made for cheaper over the last two years while we were all waiting for someone to make them?
I just wanted to commend BNMotorsports on a job well done !
I received a set of four polished trim rings yesterday, and man, these things are well worth it. They arrived packed very well, polished & buffed to a high luster.
Has anyone put these in their 82-84 yet? I remember reading that they stick out a bit, but I want to hear from someone who has them. THEN I'll order my set!
The 82-84 will not fit properly because the gauge rings are a bit to thick, hence they stick out. I'll need a measurement from someone before I'd know how much to mill off of the backside for the 82-84 sets.
ACS, PM me and give me your information and I could send you a prototype after you give me measurements or something.
Bnoon, I sent you this in a PM but I'll post it here for anyone else who was wondering.
I went out and measured my guage depth this morning and found they are .5" deep.
There shouldn't be any problem with the diameter of the openings, but I measured that too just incase. I used a caliper and found the opening to be 4.14".

Heres some shots of the test fitting.
DAMN YOU!
I thought I was going to be the lone NorCal Third Genner with these!
Are you still selling your gauge bezels. I'm putting in either a brushed aluminum or carbon fiber dash in my 15th anniversary 84 TA and would like to buy them if available. PM me
I just sent payment for the last set Bnoon has . I don't have much money right now but couldn't pass them up knowing they may not be made again.
Cadillac, I LOVE how the trim rings look with the plastic piece painted black. I was planning to paint mine black anyway, but now i'm even more excited about how it'll look.

Last set? I'm going to assume that there won't be any more made? Damn.
no more? i was wondering if you could pm me the specs, they look different than the picture schmatic you posted, cause i would like to get them machined. but with a bezel like a pro comp
Has anyone seen Bnoon around lately? I seem to be finding all the cool stuff too late. I would love to get my hands on a set of these trim rings for my 84 T/A.
Nope, sorry. He told me when I ordered my last summer that he wasn't going to have any more made up. He had to do a bunch of them at one time to get a decent price and then was stuck with them when it took so long to sell the last of them.

That's too bad. I really like the look they give. I guess I'm going to have to find some place else to pick them up. Thanks for the info.
you guys should PM Bnoon and see if he is willing to post up the design for the trim rings. Then anyone can go to a machine shop and have them made up.
