Bentley MkVI & R Type Headlight Bezel — CD1717

Is the headlight bezel on your classic Bentley pitted, corroded, damaged or missing? Part number CD1717 is the correct replacement headlight bezel for the Bentley MkVI and Bentley R Type — all models from 1946 to 1955.

The headlight bezel is the trim ring that surrounds the headlight unit, sitting between the light housing and the body of the car. On these classic post-war Bentleys it is one of the most visible and distinctive exterior chrome components — a key detail for any restoration or concours preparation. Over time these bezels suffer from corrosion, pitting, cracking and general deterioration, and a worn or damaged bezel immediately detracts from the appearance of an otherwise well-presented car.

This is a new aftermarket replacement bezel manufactured to the correct specification for the Bentley MkVI and R Type headlight assembly.

Note on fitment: CD1717 is specific to the Bentley MkVI and R Type only. It is not the same bezel as fitted to Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith or Silver Dawn models of the same era, which use different headlight assemblies. Please confirm your model before ordering.

Signs your headlight bezel needs replacing: Visible corrosion, pitting or rust on the chrome surface, cracks or chips in the bezel body, bezel loose or no longer sitting flush against the bodywork, or bezel missing entirely from a restoration project.

Fitment: Bentley MkVI — all models 1946 to 1952, Bentley R Type — all models 1952 to 1955.
