finally a manual glow face gauge for Acura CL 2003

hey everyone, i am getting some proto types done for the Cl type s gauge cluster.

similar to this.


i started a prototype in photoshop and getting it sent out to be made. let me know if your guys are interested.

the picture below if my test print. the final result will be real glow face.

drawn out template for accurate measurements.

then a quick print to see if the new design lines up. and it does 100%


the final design i like is this one


if your interested let me know. maybe only do a few runs. the gauges can be had on ebay, but making this one "RPM gauge" as alternative for Manual transmission owners.
