Default xB Gauge Face Prototype... Opinions...

We started making up the xB Gauge Face prototypes. This is an example of what the first ones will look like (some work to be done yet to make them perfect). The colors look really good lit up. This one is fresh off the printer and hasn't been applied to the actual plastic we use for the face. I'll get pics of the one in my xB tomorrow during the daylight. It needs some tweaking, but I'll have a good example in my xB at SEMA this weekend.
We will have standard designs and will also do full blown custom guage faces. We haven't figured out pricing yet, but I'll keep everyone updated when we get to producing them.
Let me know what you think.


Attn Mods, we are not selling these yet, just getting opinions. I will sign up as a site sponsor before we offer them for sale (discounted to SL members).

Great concept but I'm not a real big fan of the design that you have going on.

I think it would look a lot cleaner if you ditched the Kmh markings, and toned down the "xB RS 2.0" Maybe outline the tachometer numbers in blue instead of yellow, make the fuel guage marks blue, and outline the E and F in blue. Just throwing that out there..

I think what you are doing, but aesthetically it could be better in my opinion.

This one was just the first one. Ran out of time tonight. The one that is in the car is like this one, but has a white to yellow fade. Tomorrow we are getting rid of some of the small outlines and cleaning it up a bit. The final blue will be darker. The numbers on the speedo will be changed a little. Tomorrows should turn out pretty good. I'll post pics to keep everyone up to date on how they are coming.

We'll be doing all kinds of designs. Skulls, Flames, custom photos, graphics, etc... Pretty much anything you want could be done. You can check out some of the other products at www.extremedecals.com

I like the Idea maybe change the fonts a little or something maybe its just me. Chang it up a little. Also the airbrushing on your site is sick. I would have you airbrush my helmet in a second if I had a bike.
