Hit these with some metal polish and they will shine up like jewels.

Default What a treat!
I received my beautiful rings today. I was nervous they might be too bling for me...I like understated. Then, I installed them and they are perfect. It really gives the instrument dials a brighter look, but not bling. Very "Machine!"
Chris, once again thank you for getting on this so fast and doing it so right.

Here are pictures.

How did I know that you were going to be the first to post installed pics!?

It took all of 10 minutes to install these. I love how they work with the aluminum shifter & handbrake. Nice job Chris!

Damn! I have become predictable. Hey, I have a seminar this weekend in the Detroit area...are you going to be around? I will still like to see those wheels we talked about in person.

Why not the Scotch Poster tape. Appears to be removable. Was it not sticky enough?
I also have Scoth Interior & exterior Mounting Tape. Very sticky though.

Thoughts?

Did anyone notice that the large face gauge rings seem too small for the guages? The small ones fit great.
