Ive been spending a little time with the program setting up for how the gauges should look, after scanning the orignal cluster into the comp in parts i put it together so that it would be the original 1:1 ratio when printed.

Hey DJ - can you get your mate to take pix of it lit up at night, I want to see if it has all the shadows from behind.

he had it printed him self, that is why its in 2 parts but he sold the car 3 n half years ago he was just doing it to sell it,, you should see his 260z n the gauges he made for that car just awsome
