    DM-
    Somewhere, I have a NOS std. headlight bezel. I am not sure what side it is.
    There are some light scratches on it from probably sitting on a shelf. It has
    the silver/grey paint. IF you are interested in getting it to repaint for a Grabber,
    I will pull it out and find out which side it is.
    I also have several headlight bezels from GT's/Grabbers, used, but I can't tell
    you how good of condition they are in. I chose the better two for mine, and
    will probably keep a spare set. If I have any extras, you are welcome to them
    for the price of shipping.
