Cracks and bubbles where the pipe attached to the bezel, I ended up replacing it with an Aeroforce dual vent pod and didn’t even try to sell the Ortiz piece.

I have the Ortiz piece too. It took a long time to get, the build quality is marginal, and the finish doesn't match the original trim. That said, it still puts the gauges right where I want them, so I'll keep it as long as it lasts.

That looks great. Too bad it's not executed properly.
