    Question Inversed Gauges

    I was wondering how do yall think Pauls gauges would look inversed? I mean like take the jpegs and use MS paint or something and inverse (reverse) the colors so the background is black and the numbers and stuff are white. How would this look installed and with the stock lighting or even any other lighting?

    Actually not really cuz i did it, and they have a much cleaner look to them.

    Thx viking3099. Thats what i was talking about. I think it matches alot better with the dark interiors of these cars IMO. Well at least mine. Plus it has a much more sportier look to it without standing way out.

    One other thing. On this site he says he uses neon marker, but why if the stock light allready hightlights the white? https://www.3geez.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=18849

    Well i think that he was trying to get away from the stock greenish glow of the gauges and that's why he removed the stock blubs, and installed that UV Cold Cathode. You'll also notice that he said he used highlighters to color in the markings on the gauges to have them react to the UV.
    hopefully that cleared up your question.
