Black cat gauges??

Has anyone used here used these? Any feedback? I was considering ordering these with the black overlay and blue lighting with the led. I dislike the stock gauge look, to me they look cheap!

Here is a link of the ones im looking at, they are at the bottom of the page

Also used a ceter cap because it's flat and not concaved which allows the LEDs to shine thru

Umm I don't wanna be rude or anything, but I hope you never get into a wreck were your airbags go off cuz that center cap is going to turn into a freaking projectile, possibly harming you...
