Guys, make a new thread about the colors of the gauges. Back to topic: tailland, great looking setup you have there. it actually looks better than the silver-faced gauges because of the silver bezel you have. Damnn, im liking it. One question in the below pic above the bezel, the plastic looks glossy. Did you do something to make it like it or does that come stock because I dont think mine is like that?

hm it's the polished alu rings and a brushed alu bezel overlay actually (from speedhut) . i would never paint anything because it looks cheap most times if look at it from a close distance.
(btw: the speedhut overlay has a BAD fit!)
hm the "glossy thing": i guess it's the clear plastic cover clipped to the gauge housing which reflects the light? the gauge, the bezel or the housing are not glossy at all..
