My old eyes couldn't read those gauges from that distance however...lol

Like posted above, vinyl paint scratches pretty easily. I've had a few friends that use it, but they definately aren't professionals. Maybe the common folk will just have to give up on neon green and orange dashboards. However, I would love to have black interior.

SEM makes a good vinyl paint & prep. I recently put in a dash cap cover and painted it burgundy with SEM. Looks great! I got a sterio for the 7 for Christmas, so I plan to take the grey plastic piece out of the console and paint it titaniun with SEM.

I made an aluminum dash for my racecar and mounted some auxiliary gauges over on the right like that. Trust me, you won't be able to read tham at all, all they are doing is taking up space. If you could make wedged spacers to turn them more towards you they would be OK, but flat they are useless.
