Default Roll Bar Bezels for Ant & Collectible

Hey Guys,

Where can I find bezels for the roll bar I got from Antique and Collectible? Tried Finish Line, but their set comes with one oval for the rear upright. I have Three 2 inch round uprights

Appreciate the time to all who respond.

Jer

Jerry: your roll bar should be 1 3/4" in dia. Finish line sells 1 1/2" and 2" dia bezel kits. Yes thiers is oval for the rear down support bar. The 1 1/2" is to small and the 2" is too big.
Here's what you can do. You can use the 2" from finishline and fill in the gaps around the rubber grommets (Like what I did) or you can get the 1 1/2" size from finish line and very carefully use a 1 3/4" dia hole saw and carefully bore out the rubber grommets. I am told one can do this but be careful and slow when you are boring the grommet, of course I was told after I installed the 2" ones. OR you can simple use the grommets that come from A & C with out bezels like I did for three years.
Good Luck.
Jim

Thanks for the reply Jim,

Jerry,

I made my own bezels with a product called Devcon Flexane 80. This is a two part pourable rubber you can mold to any shape. They also carry flex additives and release agents. I cast a mold out of plaster of paris. Great product!

Default Grommets

OK Guys, I was going to get rich on these grommets since 1 3/4" are so hard to find, but I'll let the cat out of the bag. Check my gallery. You,ll get a good laugh. The top half is rubber and the bottom is plastic but they separate at just the right part. Very pliable and water tight. Haven't decided if I want bezels or not. These look good with some AmorAll.
