printed up some new gauge faces

[00CericaRuss]

well.. took it to the printers... unfortunately, they didn't print it on the right material, because they didn't have any in stock... !bastards!

anyways.... i'll be gettin em reprinted at some point in time, on the correct material, and probably get a GB goin on em then... once i'm happy w/the final result

1 layer of the stuff, black background, white numbers.
needles are clear

2 layers, white background... actually, it looks completely white w/the car off, but when the car is on, the numbers light up.... too bad it's not visible during the day... needles are white here

any chance you can make these for sportshift users too? since there aren't any on the market at the moment??

[00CericaRuss]

Yes, I could.. just need to find someone w/a sportshift local so i can borrow their gauges.

What is the material that is wrong? The black looks right. But the top clear should be that matte finish stiff. Is that what you're talking about?

[00CericaRuss]

yeah.. well... i found out it's the right material, which puts a bunch of different ideas into my head... i need some laminate of some sort and some other stuff.. grr... photoshop, here i come again

Great idea- i'd definatley buy a set if they were white faces with red numbers. I love the trd ones but i don't want to spend 180 on a face gauge change. Goodluck and definatly post the results.
