Re: Firebird double Din radio bezel
I would think most folks would like it if it looked nice and factory blended.... is that a term? But kinda like it could have come stock that way. I know the biggest thing for me is I don't like how aftermarket stereos stick out so visually, in these cars I like subtle. just one guys opinion though.

Re: Firebird double Din radio bezel
I printed a double din Bezel I don't have a firebird to do a complete install on but I know it matches a stock din and a half bezel. if course the piece would still need to be finish sanded and painted to match you interior.. Let me know if you if still interested we can work something out

Re: Firebird double Din radio bezel
I have a 3D printed double din bezel that I've been waiting to install. Still need to buy the head unit, but I was thinking of sanding it smooth/glossy and then taking very thin tape, spraying a matte black to match the factory pattern. I should order that head unit right now. Thinking of going with a Sony XAV5000. I like the look of it and it is an inexpensive option. What are you all using?

Re: Firebird double Din radio bezel
the bezel and top of the console is going to be a matt/black finish. the checker ones you see in the pic are factory 1.5DIN bezels
not finished yet, just being prepped for paint
you can still see where the factory checkerboard finish was before wet sanding

Re: Firebird double Din radio bezel
that really does look good, did you make the radio plate from the factory piece?
