nice as hell

 

Looks awesome man.

 

damn. that sig is the size of my damn monitor

 

write-up is on my sig, funny how this thread has been resurrected from the dead

 

sweeeet. like it

 

wariow: thanks for that writeup by the way... but there is nothing that explains how to get that whitish blue color...

my theory is that he used alternating white and blue high flux (75 - 90 degree spread) LEDs. This way you get a soft mixture of the white a blue. I would LOVE to know how it was really done... i am experimenting on an extra cluster i have now, trying to achieve the same effect. too bad the high flux leds are like $2 each!

I have done my gauges with the same 2-tone effect and did not need to perform anything as elaborate as you have suggested. Here is the link to the pictures of my gauges. http://forums.maxima.org/showthread.php?t=417185 Here is a hint for you. You can use the same color LED for the entire gauge to create the 2-tone effect. I will chime in tomorrow with the answer if you have not already guessed how before then. Have fun thinking about it until then.

PLease do something about his sig. like maybe a little time off the .org

 

scrumtrulescent!!! anyways very sweet job. Did you think about trying to get the 7 and 8 on the tachometer white, or did you prefer it to be red.

 

I have already been thinking about it for 4 months now, trying different things. Yours do not look two-tone at all. By the way, it is tomorrow. whats your solution?

hey those gauges are sweet and i also like the shift light... good job man..

 

It may not seems like it to you but they are 2-tone. The dashes are light blue and the numbers are white. The solution is to sand off the paint behind the guages in key areas. The paint acts like a filter that blocks the light so by removing it, it will allow more light to pass through. A simple solution but some may be afraid to sand their gauges for fear of destroying them.

 

very clean!! wow looks very luxurious looking! how did you do the shift light? is there anything up there other than the turn signals and the Hi-Beam signal? I thin the hi-beam signal is a bit off to the right, leaving room for a fourth item to the left of it correct?

 

that look like professional work geo. mad props

 

wow, what do they look like in day light

 

k i will try it.

 

wow man thats truly amazing. props on a job well done. theres 100 bucks in it if you do mine the same lol
