I think they look sharp and do serve a usefull function so with that said I don't think it's rice at all.

I think they are rice as hell. I don't have any problems reading my factory gauges at night. I think they look sharp too.

Well if you feel you need to see your gauges better than get them. Its not rice at all if it serves a good purpose, they don't look bad either.

Who the hell is gonna see them but you and mabye your passanger? If you like them, then get them. People aren't gonna accuse you of bein rice just for having indiglo gauges. Slap on some stickers and act like you take on Vipers and such and you'll be considered a ricer.

Fast and The Furios = The Riced and the Ridiculous

If you want it, get it. It shouldn't matter what other people say, you'll be the one seein it most of the time, not them.
