white faced gauges?

I'm going to be adding a new boost and EGT gauge in the near future and am thinking about changing all of them to white faced. I'm kind of thinking that they may look a bit weird since i have tan interior. they look awesome in a car with all black but im not sure how they will look in a car with tan.


Does anyone have any pics of a car with white gauges and a tan interior?

These are from Fd3BOOST's car...




They look sweet, you cant tell much difference at all since the cluster is black.

Actually thats my car (thanks for the plug 7-sins) No I never had any problem with these bumping my knee or legs. I actually just removed the Profec-b. Yes they are NR Guages BTW and the guage is SPI.

where can i get the nr gauges? and does anybody know of any whiteface gauges where the hole gauge lights up, like an indiglo? I don't like just that bar lighting up like on stock. looks tacky imo.

I just noticed that www.blackcatcustom.com now has white on green (and different background colors)

Anyone have their gauges? How are they? I currently have NRAuto gauges but they backlight yellow and I would love green to match my Defi Gauges!
