    Nice. Very well done.

    I'd like the paper gauge backs done in that sort of red/white style...that would fit the stock 348 Veglia gauge faces.

    These things are easy to take apart to replace the paper inserts, and that's a much easier look for a driver to be viewing than the orange and black halloween images.

    On another note, I'm a big fan of a metallic or white instrument panel background in lieu of black, such as what the Dino and 308 GT4's had (see pictures below).

    Clive,

    Cannot wait to see the finished car!


    348 Interior parts ……

    The website is updated with the information on the 348 interior bits and everything will be ready to ship in 7-10 days time. We are basically just waiting for the die cut self adhesive rings that go inside the reverse of the gauge rings - There will be no need to start mixing up glue etc to put these on!

    and click on the "Interior Parts" button on the left.

    Cheers

    They look great Paul. Thanks for thinking of the 348 guys. Just wondering do you think it gives the car a more modern look? Or a more retro look? They look similar to the 308 gauges. Do the 360's have silver bezels? Just curious.

    Ditto the above. Keep those parts coming.

    Brent, I think they really update the look - but maybe because a lot of modern cars are gone retro...

    Cheers guys :)

    Retro? - Modern? - If you think about it things have tended to go full circle where many modern designs are using ideas/looks from the past - The older ones among us remember seeing things like that 20/30 years ago - the younger guys were not about so it looks modern to them! - For me - I think it just suits the car as it breaks up an area where there is just a lot of black and the silver anodised aluminium parts just compliments things like the gear knobs, pedals, shift gate and so on.

    Thanks again,

    Paul

    Why... white ?

    How about a yellow rpm like the 430... I think that looks so awesome...

    i just thought yellow doesnt fit in my black and red car . the white red black would stand out more.

    I like it...I think a deeper red would look better though..like the exact red that "No Doubt" posted that comes with the Enzo's...could you post what it would look like in that shade of red?

    Looks good, but would look better inverted, with red everywhere you have white, and white everywhere you have red.

    Outstanding! Now the red just needs to be an Enzo shade darker.

    Paul,
    I would certainly buy a set of the rings if you decide to do 328s.

    Thanks.

    i think its just the video making it look neon bright red. when it is printed it would be darker /cmyk .
    i still like the white i think

    How hard or time consuming would this be to do?
