Hey everyone just started on my custom made guages today and this is what i have so far..

here is a pic of the guage in the housing but outside the vehicle. keep in mind this is only one part of the guage so its semi see through..

I do not have the stock plate in there at all anymore.



hnere is one inside with the housing back on



and on.. this is not at night but ill take one when it gets dark.. now keep in mind you can still see the Squares on the plastic behind the guage.. this is going to be a two layer guage. this layer is the top layer.. thje bottom layer is going to black out everything except the numbers and letters..

Since my scheme is mainly white/black i didnt want to put any color in the guages but could have easily done so..

 

cool, heres some ideas

 

orange!


:D

 

orange you glad?

 

badum ching!

Here is one i made for my cavalier back in the day.. I just found the pic.. its kinda small but it actually turned out really cool cause his eyes lit up rid at nite. i couldnt find a pic inside the car though

 

i like da font on them cavalier gauge

 

Brooklyn kid? Weak.

 

Whats weak? me trying to do something on my own and making my box unique?

What a vote of confidience there buddy or would you rather me use wingdings? would that suit you better..

 

bump looks good! i like it

 

Looks super-cool in a far-out kinda way.

 

Thats a good idea of just getting a lens to replace the clear one....hmmmm, I will have to look into it.
Thanks for the idea

haha, thats my car! well, was my car. that was on my BCP xB. Heres the one in my TCM

 

Brooklyn kid? Weak.....Yeah real weak. Not evil enough

 

I'd have gone with something more sinister looking or done an actual handstyle for the thing. This font looks rather bBish:

Barring that, I'd have gone with something really flowery and calligraphic.

 

kool, Randode.
i might have to do a orange flame

 

Ok im done wasnt feeling the all white guages so i changed them up a bit
I wil lget a pic later tonight when its dark

 

Nice ideas. I like the scion life guage.

 

Looking hot, what's it printed out on? Does it light up like the stock piece?

 

Can anyone tell me if there exist a polish or chromed ring that can be snapped onto the edge of the speedo gauge?? This is to match my extra gauges..look picutre.

 

This is the closest that I have been able to find:
