Custom Gauge Color?
I am looking to go with black cat customs to get a gauge set, but am not sure what color/lighting to do. Here is my dash:


Yes, i have a cobalt autometer voltmeter, thats whats throwing me off color wise. I originally wanted yellow face and not sure on lighting, but with that, iam not sure. here are the options:
Face colors:
White
Yellow
Silver
Black
Lighting colors:
Light Blue
Red
Green
Yellow
Natural
What combination do you think would look best?

You can thank me for the flame cluster...at least if you got it in blue. It was supposed to be a silver face with blue flames. I gave them the idea to make for me cuz i wanted something that was a one off that nobody else had about 6 months ago, and they put it into production before i could even order them. I'm kinda pissed at them atm actually. BUT...they do have a great product and i started working with them at the same time I came up with the flame guages idea to get the STOCK boost gauges for our cars with a custom face and soon you'll be able to order a direct replacement that is the factory boost gauge with a custom face. They were quoting me a price of roughly $120 for a new gauge with the custom face installed already. I was doing it because I wanted to use the factory T/C boost gauge since it goes to 30 psi.
That's funny...2 weeks ago when I looked at their site and noticed the flame gauges on there, they were silver face with the blue flames...they changed it to black with silver flames. I was gonna post up the pic that was supposed to be my gauges. Now i gotta come up with something totally different....damnit

Anyway, sorry for sidejackin a little bit....what color is your car and do you plan on painting the interior?

Well. So far 4 responses and no help. Ha.
My car is yellow as in my sig and I was thinking of painting the dash trim. Not sure what color. Maybe flat yellow.
Well go with blue to match your other guage then. That's what i did in mine. Unfortunately not a whole lot of colors go well with yellow. Face color is totally up to you, I'd go silver or black face. Unless you really wanna stand out, I wouldn't get the whole colored face in like a yellow or something. But with the painted interior the yellow face with the yellow ones may not look too bad. As you can see up there i chose silver face with blue flames for mine, but decided not to get them now. I gotta come up with something else on the design.

I think a great look would be a black face in the c-style face with the yellow accents and blue led lighting. The blue led lighting would best match your autometer gauge. It would look like the last pic above.
