Default Cheap gauge face overlays?

So those white indiglo gauge face overlays for your cluster can be found for cheap all over the web; but are there no cheap tasteful black gauges anywhere?

There's one set but it looks like something out of NFS Underground. I wish someone would make "OEM" style gauge overlays as well.

but seriously, how much different do you want it?

just do up a template and have them printed up yourself. people have done it for oddball cars like saturns. then if you want the indiglow effect, get reverse indiglos and overlay your template overtop of those FTW

I could be wrong here but I think the OEM gauges are black. So buy the white shitty indiglo gauges, open the package, throw the gauges in the garbage and keep your OEM black ones in place.

In this day and age where finding a clean operating OEM cluster that has a catered 9000RPM redline and 140MPH speedometer is pretty limited. Something like the OMNI tachometer would be cool if you could just do a gauge overlay lol
