Yep, something like that and not Autometer gauges in a "custom" gauge panel. No offense meant to anyone else.

I like the wheels. Not sure about the gray in the pockets. The color there would depend on what your paint colors are going to be.

i think he could fill in parts in paint the same as the cars colour , not sur wish parts to use though , it might change the total look of the rim or make it look like it belongs on a clownscar
maibe two shades of grey or grey black
