Well I never liked the yellow gauges in my car. So I scanned the stock gauges, changed em up a bit, printed them off on photopaper but left the now red areas white. colored them in with a red sharpie. this worked better then trying to print red. the light didnt quite make it through using these as overlays so i peeled off the gauges and adhered these right to the plastic. also painted the needles red.





bah, saving them as jpeg really blurred them


another blurry jpeg shot. the light does shine though the black though but its not too bad and at least you can see the numbers

 

lol red sharpie , lovin it over the red over the yellow

 

Sweet!!!! I just think it's to much red. But they look pretty damn good for a home made job!!!!

 

thanks guys! just added the night shot!

 

Looks good, I love the red gauges. Personally, I would have left the plastic cover piece unpainted. It would make it look like it was originally made that way.

 

I like my gauges red too ..

dont tell anyone, but I used a sharpie too ..

figure that one out

 

Those guages remind me of early to mid 80s hand held video games.

 

guess ill add my red guagues too...Yes I know its a bad pic but you get the idea

 

Looks good !! But I would prefer geen or blue.

 

so lets see yours!

 

ill spend my 500 dollars elsewhere Adrians91Z28.

as far as toxik IROC, all i see is red plastic.




wow.




anyone else care to hijack?

 

Looks good. I'd like the bezel black better but those gauges look damn sweet.

 

you say his are all red plastic, looked at yours lately

was more like $450 and they beat the stock pos gauges anyday .. plus the stupid dealer wanted $600 just to fix my speedo (not the other broken gauges)

 

thanks CamarosRUS. still am considering striping the paint back off. but was already red so i just havent got around to it yet.

and mine are a little more then red plastic.. have you looked at mine lately??

the thread isnt titled "show off your red gauges" so if you feel like posting your pictures thats fine- just click the "new thread" button first.

 

ok, some printer paper and a red sharpie ..


sorry If I offended you awsome gauge thread .. I'll make my own if I wanna show everyone mine

 

'bout time...

and did i mention the cost?? oh yeah.. there wasnt any...

and thats photo paper and a red sharpie thank you very much.




which you said the stock gauges are pos anyways so according to you i'm still better off

 

This thread needs to be

 

with useless comments like this? i agree

why am i in the wrong for backing up my post against hijacking?

 

i think "i" is supposed to be capitalized

 

Hilarious.

 

imo I think you should of done black for the bezel around the guages, but i love the gauges and how they came out, just i would have done black on the bezel
