I had really been looking at making blue gauges, but also was looking for some red in there as well. I originally ordered Russ' black and blue gauges, but the numbers were impossible to see during the day. So I returned them for the black and white gauges and decided to do some customizing on them. Here's a pic of the standard black/white gauges I'm sure you've seen.
And here's them held up to a white backlight. I used colored filters for stage lighting on the back side. In the car, they will be backlight by white El sheet, and the needles will be red.
So what do you think?
