So I know it's been awhile, but what was the name of the color for the krlon fusion paint?

Yea do you have an airbag on your pillars also? If so I've been looking for a 3 pod like that for awhile. Where did you get it?

Thanks

JC's car does not have A-pillar airbags. If it did, the badge identifying them would be just above the top gauge pod in the second picture from the top. If you DO have A-pillar airbags, I strongly discourage you from doing this. It's illegal to disable airbags, and if you get t-boned you're liable to take a boost gauge in the face when the airbag goes off. How many gauges are you looking to install?

Oh yea gauge in the face doesn't sound good at all! Just two for the time being think that's really all you can get enough room for with the airbags on the pillar :/

Does anyone know the name of the Fusion paint that matches our interior?

If you only want two, you could do two vent mounts or a dual steering wheel mount?
