It'll look good if you do it right. But i think it would look better with white face gauges. Just my .02

Don't do it, you'll regret it down the line. If you want to change it up a bit, throw in an SI cluster or something, but don't paint it.

Painting anything on the interior is something you will regret...don't waste your time or your money.

I had painted mine white also. But then I changed my color sceme and I took it out painted it gloss black and added a carbon fiber bezel. It looks way better now, and I wished I had never painted it in the first place. I should have just bought the carbon fiber bezel. You can get one for like 40 bucks at http://www.autodynamic.com

stock is best, but you can always help stock out a little. I have the same cluster, but added a CF bezel, painted the needles red, and changed the front light from that bluish white to red. I love the way it looks and cost it set me back $30 bucks.
