Console Boost Gauge
I had my boost gauge mounted in the center console for the longest time and it looked like crap!!! The ashtray door wouldn't close had the ring around the gauge all banged up.. and wasn't as nice as fit as my new one.
So busted out the good ol' Solidworks.. drew a new one up and cut it out at work last nite...
the result..

Are you actually able to view that gauge at WOT? The gague looks difficult to read with the yellow and white.

I must say that if you are going to do it. Do it right this is my favorite by far.

Looks great! Is that a piece of metal? I need to make one tomorrow or sometimes this week.

These all look cool, but I have a hard time reading mine on the piller pod at WOT!

That is why mine is going on the pillar. I need to fab up a plate for the ashtray area for the EBC.
