i think it doesnt make you look like a tool, if youre car is fast and you need the gauges.

it is, afterall, the best place for you to take a quick glance.

I think the A-pillar would be a good place to mount them, but i don't want to look like every person around here who thinks they're fast.

I got a nice way to mount them, just wait. I'm waiting on my "supplier" to get something fabbed.

i'm doing it all at the same time. I'm actually redoing the entire harness and integrating the gauges into it. It's gonna be a pretty clean install. It's all getting re-loomed and soldered.

Yeah, it will. It's not gonna be tucked, cause this is a function over fashion car, but it will be pretty.

Yeah man, real old school, 13x8 wheels. LIGHT AS ****. Even with a tire on their it couldn't have been much more over 10 lbs.

And did I mention $150. Only downside is, their so light that they're not streetable. Oh well, race wheels here I come!

you just have to know what you're doing. Trust me, they're awesome wheels and normally go for ~$400 - $500. I'm really happy I'm getting them.

They look like this:

Don't get me wrong, I bust my own tires and would probably mangle those.. ...but I would get em if I trusted myself more!
