    Z9 Gauge restoration

    Having issues with the chrome bezels around every gauge. The chrome is peeling off every one of them. Looked into replacements but the cheapest is over $100 for each...and that's just for the bezels! Thinking of stripping them using bright chrome vinyl wrap. Anyone have any suggestions or experience with this? By the way, the steering wheel is having the same issue. Frustrating!

    I had the same problem - always bothered me, I took mine off and was going to have them powder coated- cost was around 200.00 for all of them. I have since sold my boat, they are a real pain the ass to take off.

    hope that helps

    Go look at Basscat.com Parts. They have bezels for standard size gauges. A lot cheaper than $100 each
