JMO413 Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 (edited) I all looking for a left and right marker lamp bezels for my 88. Looking for painted and can only find chrome.Both of mine are cracked. 90 and earlier fit. Newer than that are part of the headlight bezel. Not really worried about how they look I will be repainting them. Edited May 14, 2020 by JMO413 Content

JMO413 Posted May 14, 2020 Author Posted May 14, 2020 You are correct I meant earlier. If I can't find some I will try to repair them. But I was just hoping to find some in one piece.
eaglescout526 Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 I know 500 MJ has some but they are in chrome. They are those pieces I mention every now and then for guys to save if they come across them.
88mjsally Posted May 14, 2020 Posted May 14, 2020 I know where a pair is in a junkyard near my house if you want me to try and grab them for you. They looked to be intact last time I was there but I never remember to grab things like that

JMO413 Posted May 15, 2020 Author Posted May 15, 2020 This but not in chrome. They are separate from the headlight bezel.

OldSch88L Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 Hey I'm just throwing that out there; I do model kits, and a well kept secret to de-chrome plastic parts is to let them soak in Super Clean. You could always try that in the worst case scenario if you can only find chrome bezels.

It works really fast for chrome plated styrene parts, but I didn't try it on other plastics. I might try it on some old chrome door panel trims to see if it works.
500 MJ Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 I’ve got two chrome RH ones. Let me know if you are interested. .
OldSch88L Posted May 24, 2020 Posted May 24, 2020 Hmmm I found a chrome plastic ring from a Prelude shift boot, I tried it, and it doesn't seem to work. Chrome seems thicker,, maybe differrent chemistry
