My custom gauge faces done by Panther37

Thought I would post up some installed pics of the custom indiglo gauge faces I had made by Panther37.

I had them made up to look like Autometer Phantom-series gauges, which they definitely do. They look killer.

However, these things were such a headache.

For one, it is nearly impossible to cut out the opening for the odometer and trip odometer and actually have them look good. Mine look awful when you get up close.

Also, this may not be a problem with darker faces but these white faces pick up dirt like a MAGNET and it's almost impossible to get off. I found that spit would get some off, I never tried water...alcohol would take the ink right off. My speedo face has some kinda gunk on it that I couldn't get completely off.

And, connecting the wires to the indiglo is a huge pain in the ass.

With all that being said...well, here's the pics.
