Looks really clean, nice work buddy!

What gauge is that? Were the chrome clusterrings a PITA?

The cluster rings aren't chrome, but polished aluminum to match the boost gauge. And yes an HUGE PITA... you can't remove the clear lense on the gauges and the rings snap into place, so you had to basically work from the back of the bezel and they tightly snap into place. The big ones were easiest and the two upper rings were a pain because you couldn't use your fingers, had to use a paint can opener and ended up scratching one.

The gauge I got off of ebay, but I think I got what I paid for:

I ended up getting a 2" hole saw and cutting my center vent myself... don't recommend this to just anyone... turned out great though, and the matches perfectly. It can light up all red like 96-99 interiors, or switched with a button to light up white with red needle like 00-01 gauges, however it needs to be dimmed to match perfectly and I'm currently working on that myself. Thanks guys.
