Here's one of the aluminized bezel covers removed from the instrument bezel I purchased. It is plastic, and cannot be pulled off while the bezel is in place. The two covers are held in place by a couple of screws and clips. Therefore, access would require removing the steering column cover.
However, I believe a Carbon Fiber cover can be constructed for each side and drop or slide into place with the two-sided tape like the shifter ring and radio cover, etc. The piece does not have to be more than a few mm's near the steering column cover, just enough to so the driver does not see the plastic.

CFelement, EVO-R, ConceptZ, Carbonsignal, etc. I can send you the instrument bezel to use as a mold. Any takers?

We bought a whole interior set once we started selling the interior kit 3 years back, so we can do test fitments on all the items shipped out. We did this weeks back once we posted on the other thread, its just been busy with other projects so couldn't post it here, will do it today or tomorrow and people interested can offer it as well.

And no need to open the whole piece if anyone wants to use ours as it will be clipped on the existing one

Carbonsignal, we are very excited about purchasing the CF bezel from you and are looking forward to a very high quality product.
When you said you were going to post the CF bezel today and tomorrow in your most recent post, did you mean today or tomorrow, or can this post serve as a friendly reminder? Looking forward to the reveal!
