I sometimes use 3 leg Bi-colored LEDs and have problems getting them to fit into bezels.
Do they make special chrome bezels for 3 leg Bi-colored LEDs?
The problem is that the two outside legs stick out past the width of the LED and won't fit down into the bezel.

I doubt "they" do, as most consumer products don't use bezels, they're PC mounted, and have a molded hole in the product's case. 

You can't file your bezels to get them to fit? Maybe hot glue it to hold the assembly to the case?  Or insulate the leads and scrunch them in?  You got me worried, I just bought a batch of Tri colored LEDs!

The Radioshack black plastic bezels work fine for the bi-colored ones, though.
