Been working on this BMW. It has a VW motor transplant. It was the first prototype which later conversions were sold. It was missing a headlight bezel for the custom gauge cluster. Later conversions reused the original cluster. I think this was built to monitor and make sure everything worked right during development. Other than the motor/dash the bike retains its original parts. Here are a few pics and how I made the bezel.

Still needs a little more rubbing and spot sanding but it`s all by hand.
Thermal heat forming panel 1/8 in was used and formed by hand. Then careful Dremel work.
