I got bored today ( home due to stomach hernia) and started working on my white gauges. I am planning on replacing the bulbs with red LED's.
I need a few hours and I will finish the rest.

Very cool. Wonder what it would look like with some cool blue LEDs.

How did you actually make the white faces? Any chance you'd be able to create a template?

Thanks.

I made the vinyl overlays by vectorizing the file and had my cutter cut them out into vinyl. I can make any color.

The hard part is taking the cluster out, I am sure many are familiar with the procedure. There are 2 pcs. layered together, the white, then the black.

If you guys are interested, they can be available to anyone that needs a set.
Different colors are also a possibility.

Would love one for the instrument panel. I tried to repaint these when I did my dash, but waaaaaaay to intricate to do well freehand. Not the Speedo and tacho, gonna keep that, but I've got some carbon faced Autometer gages for boost/vac etc, so are you able to make this vinyl piece somehting like carbon fibre look-a-like. If not I'd be keen for black. On second thought maybe the speedo and tacho would look sweet all new and clean hmmmmmmm.....

I have very limited supply of carbon fiber vinyl. This is good stuff, very realistic, but is also pricey. I'd do $30 for carbon fiber vinyl. i also have gloss black and matte black
