Bro i dont have all this money you speak of.Extra parts would be cool but the problem is well lets face it truck guys are cheap.We need to get a better following.But i am with you on it,I myself dont like carbon fiber look but painted and i am down with that.

thisismatt Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 Yeah, I don't really care for bare cf either, but I would like parts that don't rust ;) 1 Quote Link to comment
Ranman72 Posted September 15, 2013 Report Share Posted September 15, 2013 I like CF accents such as spoiler or door sill plates or door handles etc only pieces not full panels CF is extremely light and very strong but most reasonably priced CF parts are fiberglass with the last layer CF Quote Link to comment

nis720 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Today I played around with ideas for the cluster, I still don't have all the gauges from MrBig so I improvised and even took the boost gauge off my truck. Originally he wanted the two big gauges (Tach and a speedo) and 4 small 2-1/16 guages. I concluded it would be too cluttered and the hole would be too close to the edges. Then I tried one gauge on each side. The spacing was a little off on the side gauges and the cluster bezel covered part of them. Then I decided to put the gauges closer together and stagger them This is a keeper, now I need to hack up the bezel to make it work. Quote Link to comment

datrod Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Something looks out of place to me. I think the tack & speedo are too big. Quote Link to comment
nis720 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Something looks out of place to me. I think the tack & speedo are too big. I told Ray the tach is too big, but once I mocked it up it doesn't look too bad. Quote Link to comment
