This Hooded Bezel is awesome !.........I would love one if it could match the colour of the OEM plastic surround of my Macan.
Like a seem-less extension if you will.

Happy to print you one or two like Bob's. As for paint, I'm wondering if it's better for me to paint from here, or just give them to you and let you match the color locally? I could do some kind of slate black, but not sure I could match your color without a paint code or sample, etc... They take to dark spray paint nicely, so it's not a difficult thing to paint...

I can attest to easy of painting these! I used Krylon 2 in 1 Satin Black and with a few light coats followed by a wet one it looks great in the car and no one would suspect it is not OEM - Tom is THE man!

Hello Tom and Bob,
Tom, that would be magnificent Sir, thank you.
@Bob Z had mentioned he played around with different hood lengths one short, one long, would you mind printing one of each ?....not sure which i will land on and you can tell me when its on which looks best :) any cost, please let me know, I am in.

Colour:
My dash is not jet Black......its that standard Porsche plastic dark grey/black, I think it's very close to volcano, matte. Could we try that colour? I think your painting skills are wicked. If it does not work.......I can deal with it locally :)

thank you kindly,
Terry

FYI all: the thicker hooded versions of the bezel come in 2 hood lengths: 1" and 1 1/2", which is the distance on top of the hood.
