Custom Gauge Facias (With pics)

I had enough of the overlay, can't see it at night as we all know. Since there is no mph replacements readily available I thought I'd make my own, I mean, how hard can it be!!
After footering about with software I came up with a scale template.

Next this was printed off and compared with the original.

And test fitted with repainted needle.

Happy with that so, I have ordered some translucent plastic which should hopefully arrive soon, and I will then stick vinyl on that to give me a nice quality finish, more photos to follow once that is done.
Then doing the rev counter and temp gauge so its all matching.
