Default 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..
