    White Gauge Faces?

    I bought some white faces off of Ebay and they look ok. They turned out to actually only be stickers though. So they're shinny and and have air bubbles here and there. Just wondering if anyone knows were to get the real deal? I've heard of GaugeCo? But can't seem to find their website. Bavauto has them but thery're $160!!!! Just checking? Thanks guys!

    I'd check all the usual ricer spots. They all sell that ricey shit.

    Try to get some that have blue indiglo, with a large logo of some performance product that your car doesn't have.

      those are hard to find! i have done a lot of searches for them and haven't come up with anything decent. i talked to a vender at bimmerfest this year and he said they just are not around because the demand is not there. if any one knows anything about this i would love to know more to!

          Heh heh, I just hate white gauge faces. They're one of the most tasteless things you can do to a car, IMO. They rank right up there with those dash-mounted monster tachs.

            hehe, the first time i seen one. I asked if it was a tach for the blind.

            But i'm not going to lie, i have had some of those 5" tachs in some of my cars/trucks

            Although they wasn't stock vehicles :giggle:

                  There's a world of difference between modifying and installing 2 lengths of urethane with a Ford emblem stamped into them, and installing one of the 10 most common typical ricer items found at Pep Boys.

                  Did you know your O2 sensor is the exact same one used on the foxbody Mustang? HOLY SHIT! Better yank that fucker out of there!

                        O2 sensor is the same, but the connection on the sensor is different iirc.

                          didnt you read it? it says euro(reversed). in euroland (pronounced your-olland)everything is reverse. drivers side would be the right side, the women have the dicks and are hairy, and the men shave.

                            That's exactly right. It's something like half the price, too. The only thing you have to do I think is splice one wire that's different.

                              I think it's funny when you can just throw something on the table and sit back and watch everyone make jerks out of themselves... lol.... Anyway, you're right Mr. Anderson, they look like junk. I took them off...
