Well they don't look to bad. I went to the most Ghetto shop ever to get it done. He didn't get the gas/temp face on completely straight. It's off by about 1mm.
I didn't know how to take the dash off myself so I took it to them. I watched the guy like a hawk! It all seems so easy now. But I didn't want to screw up my car so I figure let someone else do the work. When I get some time to adjust the face over the gas gauge I'll do it. But it's not to bad so I won't worry much.
As soon as I get home I'll take some pictures. But Silver gauges with a silver car looks pretty good.
The one thing I can't stand though...this light blue circle. They should have made it dark blue like the rest of the gauge. But during the day you can't even see it.
I also didn't paint the needles. I probably should. My needles are white(I could have swore they were orange) and the silver face don't give alot of contrast.

Just a test. Needed to find site to upload images. Cause I want to take pictures tonight and this weekend.
Feel free to rip into my ride. These pictures are like 1 1/2 old.

It's not perfect by any means. The front has a big *** gap. And I have got more crap about the Z3 fenders then you can imagine.
But it's fast. That's all that counts.
And I keep screwing up the paint at the track.
I would never do custom work again. I did it once and got it out of my system.

Ok took some pics of my car tonight. Need to take some in the day with good lighting this weekend if I get a chance.
Here's a real ride
Pictures suck but Oh Well! And the car has been in the shop for 4 months so it is very dirty. Just got it back this morning
