I put silver rings around mine i bought on eBay..... I love them.
I have also put a lot of work into looking at the following options:
1. installing either an LCD screen like the following:

2. making a custom digital cluster with GPS and LED components

and

3. Or finally using an off the shelf solution like:

In all honesty porsche have made a nice instrument cluster in black and adding simple silver rings makes all the difference. Personally I dont like the white faces.
Anyone have any thoughts on the above ideas?

New to Porsche...
You said that the black gauges with white numerals are from a 924, that is what I would like to do also. Just bought an 84 944. Do you know what year the 924 gauges are? Thanks.

I used gauges from a 924S(1986-88) I found the earlier gauges did not have the correct plugs. The 924S has the black gauges with white letters and red needles, I really liked the look.

I replaced my integrated instrument cluster with discrete Porsche gauges; Porsche 924S Combination Gauge on the left, Porsche 930 Tachometer in the middle, and with a Porsche 944 Speedometer on the right. (Tachometer shown is not the final version, will have a boost gauge for the supercharger)
