I think I remember those sitting in my room for the last 2 years...prior to being installed in your SWEET cabrio... lol.

this is what I have... I would really like to get red gauge faces, anybody know where to get them ?

[Jand3rson]

that looks pretty good, im gonna look into that. was it hard taking the clear plastic plate off of the gauge cluster?

It's not that hard, but it is glued to the cluster itself. Just get a razor knife and get under the glued edge, and gently pry it up as you go, and I mean carefully. That shit will crack so easy.

hey thanks for posting that picture.

i really like the ACS decal, where did you get that? custom made?

was the install easy? like popping out the clear plastic bit?
im leaning more and more towards doing this.

Hers is mine..

With rings and white faces. I wa sooo hooked on cream but Lockwood isn't making cream for e30 right now. Cream would have been sweet with my natural interior..I still want cream though.

Teaguer, you owe me a monitor.

I smacked that bug.

It is your fault.

Thats a cool piece and a great idea .

But all of the ones I've seen mounted looked too puffy and they bulge out around the openings .

I've been thinking about getting one of those CF cluster frames for a long time, but I think the rings might be too much, I'll have to wait to see pics.

i know what you mean...
but dont you agree the gauges get "lost" in the weave?
i was thinking if i got the rings as well, i'd sand down to bare metal, then have them annodized in a darker more gun metel silver.

or if they turned out to be plastic, simply prime and spray them a darker, less chrome, silver

i think this would still highlight the gauges without them looking too bling, or blinding in the sun.

Was that what I saw in your car? I do agree, it looks great

OP, do it.

It would look better with the brushed aluminum rings. The chrome rings would be to much bling with the CF.
