    Ok, have the Yellow tach face for my 360. Now I would like to know the best or efficient way to paint or color the gauge needles Red? Thank for the help in advance.

    Remove it, as detailed in the thread, paint it with testors model paint and re-install. This will reduce the luminosity of the needle slightly.

    Thread? Link Please, Thank you.

    Never mind, got it thanks! What would I use to scrape the white off of the back of the needles and what red paint exactly should I look for?

    Thanks Guys!
