i do have the stock speedo cluster on file. it maybe as easy as sizing and going. as for the valve cover, unfortunately the shyt wont hold on compound curves in extreme heat. when the decal is on the caliper it sits flat, its not trying to hold a curve. a good airbrush artist could easily replicate the scales. it wont be cheap tho.

It's a pretty simple gauge design I could maybe scan them and modify them myself then get you to print them

i have the file for the stock speedo, and what that means i can muniplilate the file to remove or size anything you want. so if you want me to make your other guages to look like stock then i should only have to size it, put the appropreate text in and hit print. to be honest your probally not able to create a usable file for us.

maybe but you can not customize with hydro graphics. your married to pre set patterns availible to that company. unlike us, we can customize.

i wont give you a price, i dont give prices. you need to bring what you want done to me. that way i can see if i can achieve the desired results.
