Love the fresh, bold look. Nice job.

As someone mentioned in a previous thread about white overlays....if our cars came with white gauges, would we buy black overlays? Hahah...I think we would.

Depend on their job. Not everyone is home every night.
Gone three weeks from home then 5 days here.
Some of the military boys and girls are gone months even years at a time. Picked up cars for Pasha, and you could smell the bad gas but most cranked and ran.
Gauges look great corvettedaddy. Waiting on Extremevette to send mine back now. Reverse glow and customized . As much as we look at those things its a mod I can see everyone doing.
