Custom Gauge Faces Speedo/Tach

Anybody have these in their R56? http://www.outmotoring.com/out-motor...ph-or-kmh.html

Interested in the black ones specifically, but would like to see pics of anybody that has them. Also looking for feedback on how the install was...


Thanks

The outmotoring ones were the closest I could find.

HAHAHA, the DuelL faces. The tach alone is somewhere around $600. Yeah, I want those faces too, they're amazing and get their own DuelL serial number on them for authenticity.

Holy Sh**!! Forget that haha.



Anyways, still interested in the outmotoring ones. I'm surprised it's not a more common mod given the size of the speedo and its impact on the looks of the interior... maybe the install is a *****? the site says 1-2 hrs

Maybe, or maybe no one really cares about the faces. I'm at the point where performance/handling trumps looks. Function over form for me right now

Wait, those gauge faces go up to 10k and have 5k at the top. The factory tach only goes to 8k and has 4k at the top. Also the needle is sitting at about -1k rpm on the factory face. How does that all work? Do you just take the needle off and reattach it rotated lower?

The speedo face is doing the same thing! Also, I don't really like the speedo face it's a little to too-fast-too-furrious for me.
