Oh yeah, I get that and agree. That big chunk of pebble grain chrome staring at you screamed "I lack the skills to paint my new reproduction bezel properly"

I still have a couple OEM bezels with perfect plating. They are chrome throughout front and back. That's because they were re-plated. I got them from Cheyenne Superman 30 years ago when I saw he was offering re-plated interior chrome. This was way before reproduction and original chrome had faded on virtually all dashes. I never noticed till more recently that he engraved "Cheyenne Superman" on the back
