    gauge rings

    what do you guys think of these things? i got em a couple of years ago but i dunno if i like em anymore. every time i see a clean stock cluster, i regret putting these in. thinking about taking em out and maybe selling them. whats your opinion?


    (not the best pic but all i could find)

    *note, i also have the chrome z3 shifter, and acs replica brushed aluminum pedals. thinking about selling chrome shifter for brushed alum one though..

      I think they look great and really updates the interior.

          I like them, but I was getting bored of the same interior for 5 years. now I don't really notice them anyway. it was a fun diversion for about 3 weeks..

            I think they look nicer with red needles. White needles & chrome just looks "too much" to me vs. red & chrome.

            If you're sick of them, just get an extra cluster & switch between the 2 - nobody would buy your used rings IMO, they're $20 on Fleabay.

            I like 'em on other peoples cars, I don't have a set.

            It's not how you handle the good times, but the faith you keep in the bad that defines you.

                lol true true. probably just throw in the old parts box and save em if i ever put em back in. meh...ill take em out eventually. ive taken my cluster out too many times recently to do it again...

                i had a red needle cluster not too long ago that i sold. i loved it, but dont know if id do it in my car. maybe the next e30 i get ill throw the chrome rings on and do red needles

                    I like them. I went for something different with mine though.

                        I took it all apart and used 99 cent primer. But it's not as dark as the Alpina picture but close to it. There's diffferent color gray primers out there though.

                              I think they look awesome, but I like the brushed ones better. The chrome is a little too flashy.
