Rings for FireBird cluster
I'm new here and have been looking around for the rings that fit into the gauge cluster for the firebird. well after reading and reading and finding out that the people that are making, or have made them. are either hard to find or just to much money .
So I went a head and made some of these they are made out of ABS plastic and painted with a brushed aluminum finish. these parts don't require any glue,tape or screws. it is just a simple pop it in they will not fall out unless you pull them out.
here are a few pic's to veiw I'm just trying to provide people with a look that they want that is 50% less then the aluminum rings.
Please feeed back is a great thing, so please let me know.
Regards

Wow man, those look awesome. I want to make some gauge surrounds like that or the ones that powermite has. Some white gauges would make the cluster look even better in my opinion. Hard to find white gauges that are in KMH tho

Maybe I'm biased because I have an alluminum set - but those don't look anything like the sets that boon was making (or that Powermite has). Too inset and close to the plexi.
Just my .02 though.

I agree, the aluminum ones look better because they cover the entire opening (if you know what I mean). I'd like to see some more pics though, and possible a price?

Do you guys think they would look as good, or better than powermites if they were flush with the cluster, and not have a lip like powermites?

OK this is the Deal, Everyone has a choice and that's what I'm trying to do here, I'm not trying to make them look like anyone's style or copy something from a book. What other people have done with cluster rings is great, they look the *****. and if I had the money I would buy some also. But I wanted to provide people with a choice. Some people will like them and others won't and that's were the choice comes in..
What I'm willing to do is provide anyone that is interested in these cluster rings is,
I'll send (1) ring out and then you can try it out. You can see the how they fit,what they look like and most of all if you like them. Then if you want to purchase the set I'll send the other (3) right to you. Now the question is has anyone offerd that kind of Deal?
For a set of four Cluster rings (3) because you already have (1), with shipping will run you $55.00 and I'm paying shipping costs.....
If you can get these cheaper PLEASE let me know...
