I haven't updated my list yet but I have two mamba's to paint, including yours :) The sport chrono bezels are soooo much easier to do than the tach bezels for the 992, I would welcome all your Taycan forum buddies! Buzz away! Love it! That said, in fairness to all, I'm flat out prioritizing people like yourself who become part of the carpokes community with posts and commentary, etc. I started making these for folks to get the word out about us, but I've had quite a few people post once asking for bezels and them disappear after I printed/painted it etc., without even taking their bezel. I've thought about charging to eliminate that, but would rather keep them as a carpokes housewarming gift for now. So when someone joins and becomes an active Carpokean like yourself, it seems only fair to put them at the top of the list. Tomorrow is paint day. :thumbup:
Hi Tom,

Just like some members, I heard about this on Taycan forum and joined this community. Appreciate what you are doing with the sport chrono bezel (thank you) and I am looking forward to do my share with post, reaction just like how I am doing in Taycan forum. Looking forward to sharing, learning, reading from this forum!

Fortunately, one upside from the flurry of interest from the Taycan community is no tach :lol:

Don't you know it!!! I'll update the list in a bit. It takes a little concentration to sift through all the posts (and emails) to make sure I picked everyone up...

Straying off topic for a moment, I really like painted accent pieces. Here is a pic of my wife's 2013 981 Boxter S. It was a surprise wedding anniversary gift, so I did a lot of Porsche Exclusive customizations. One of the one's that cost a bit, but is still one of my favorites, is the painted vents to match the exterior color. I asked Porsche NA if I could have the vents done the same way for my Taycan in Mamba Green, but it wasn't available because it was a super early build and the selection of Porsche Exclusive options was very limited. I can't wait to install the bezel on the Taycan. It will give the interior some extra pop while remaining tasteful.

If you haven't noticed it yet, there is a '992 Bezel Status' link under the main forum picture at the top of the page (in the white box under the black menu banner). I just updated that. :)

p.s., guess I should rename that list given the recent influx of Taycan owners. :) Welcome one and all!!
