NICE! Finally someone get the redline correct too. Now if ONLY they made those in reverse indiglo, i'd buy them. For a turbo model though.

Two questions:

1-Where did you get the gauges, and how much?
2-Although I'm sure this has already been answered as I can recall a recent post about a homemade CF dash kit; how did you make the dash kit? Vinyl?

The kit was no too hard to make, just takes time and patience. I found "CF Sticker" on eBay awhile back, i got around 2sq ft for like 15 bucks. Its got 3m back adhesive and is a little stiffer them vinyl. What I did was cut out the peice for the top part, cleaned it up, and laid it over it to size it. Then I removed the backing and heated it with a heatgun until it became plyable, then i molded it on top of the trim peice and cut out all the button/vent holes (cut the holes smaller then the size then cut the corners and rolled the sticker to the backside) and then glued the corners from behind . The biggest pain in the ass was the radio trim bezel because its raise and lowered in some areas and the round HVAC controls, took alot of time. I'd say to do the top and bottom and figure out how to get it to look right took maybe 4 hours. But it looks better then the kit, my cf wraps into all the dial holes so you dont see the stock trim like on the cf kits. Also ~15$ sure beats the 150+ for the kits. Everyone who has seen it has asked where I got the kit, so it looks tight IMHO.

Can you give me the Ebay username of the guy you bought the gauges from? I'd like to see if he's selling anymore.
