I recently bought a new camera, a Nikon D3100. So, I figured I would test it out on the Z. While also snapping a few pics of my latest mod: A&A V3-SI supercharger

fantastic pics and incredible Z!

Question about the gauge cluster pic. Did you do an LED upgrade or is the camera that good, where the color and brightness of the gauges are super bright and vivid?

The camera, kind of, exaggerates the actually lighting of the gauge cluster. The gauge cluster still has the stock lighting. I just had the inner gauge bezel painted electron blue and painted the rings silver.
