    I spruced up my cluster too...



    Swapped the gauge cluster from the car that is now the trailer in to my 85i. [Since I needed the 7k tach]. Also installed some brushed gauge rings I had bought for my old turbo car and never installed. I think it looks pretty good!. Excuse the dirt.

    Whatcha guys think?

      Looks good man, I really like the brushed rings. You dont happen to have a brushed shift knob and ebrake handle as well do you? Combo em with a mtech 2 wheel, and some decent pedals and you've got a money interior. At least thats my plan.

          Well I have a UUC know in stainless steel from my old turbo car but it's reserved for the late model once it's done. I'm not doing too much to this car really.

              Going to be painting it actually, possibly white or some sort of silver.

                    Lookin' balla. Should have painted those needles while you were in there. Nando's cluster looks super nice like that with the rings.

                      I think it looks good but something is missing. Something looks odd. Maybe I saw a cluster with those and painted needles and it looked great too. Have you thought about painting the needles?

                        I've gone back and forth on painting them but the white needles are easier to see IMHO.
