There are a number of places that sell them. I think they look sharp, especially with black interior. I did the EM brake, pedals, and shifter as well.

Luis,
Go to the North Hollywood Speedometer website and at the top is a option for Custom Coloring and LED. Click on it and you can see some samples. On the top row something similar to Polar is displayed. Give them a call. They are world renowned...no affiliation, of course.
Cheers,
Dave

Mine are silver aluminum but I havent seen or heard of polar silver aluminum guages. It wouldnt suprise me if they are around and if not, you can probably have them customized.

I had North Hollywood Speedometer do my gauges and they not only ruined them, but refused to fix or replace them. They covered all the warning lights, so they cannot be seen day or night, left pinholes in the gauge face so that bright light shines through as little bright spots in the gauge face, ruined the lighting so the faces are pretty unreadable at night. None of the temp gauge numbers are legible day or night. They refused any redo, replacement, or refund. Stay away from them.

No problem, that's the great thing about this board. It is funny that just this evening a friend was over looking at my gauges, as he was thinking about doing it UNTIL he saw mine.
I had always thought NHS was the place to go for this kind of work, based on their ads. Just goes to show not to believe everything in advertising.

My guages look great and regardless where you buy them or have them installed, do your homework. My guages werent purchased from North Hollywood Speedometer, just installed there and purchased from NR Automobile Accessories in Sherman Oaks, CA. www.nrauto.com Talk to Neil. Again, Im not endorsing anything or anyone but I have extremely detailed records of everything on my car.
David 23's experience is combination of what appears to be unsatisfying service and products. My guages could be different. yet again they could be the same. Here are the specs on mine.
Good luck either way with your guages.
