Gauge cluster decal thoughts
I have been rebuilding some clusters and starting to work on a couple that need decals on some of the faces. Was thinking they could use a little pop. This is what I came up with and printed a few to see how they would look. What do you guys think? I wanted it to look like what is on our tailgates.

Re: Gauge cluster decal thoughts
I like it, but I think it would be really cool if the left one said Chevrolet as you have, and the right one said C/10 or K/10 or whatever the model of the truck would be!

Re: Gauge cluster decal thoughts
Looks good
Did you find the correct font, or did you make up the letters yourself? I have tried to find the correct font, but have been unsuccessful.

Re: Gauge cluster decal thoughts
The lettering is something I had in my collection if vector artwork. Was called Chevrolet C10 of all things. I had thought about something different for each side once I saw this together but was not sure that's why I wanted some feed back. Was even thinking of doing some faux gauges like the tach and vacuum. Keep the ideas coming. I'll ad them to my offerings.

Re: Gauge cluster decal thoughts
I would do a bow tie on one side so you don't have redundancy .
