Yes. The gauge surrounds are the same color. I carefully took them apart and primed, wet sanded, painted. It turned out great.

The boost guage I was using kept leaking and I took it out. Then I thought why do I really even need it, so I ordered a new steering wheel surround piece from Steve and took it all out. The parts have been sold for a long time.

I put a little bit of custom work into it. In order to place a double tip there you have to cut a support off the bumper. I fabricated a new one up but I haven't had a chance to install it. I have way too many projects going on at any given time.


Thanks ladies and gents, I try to keep it a sleeper but with some nice subtle mods. It is a blast to drive. As soon as I have a reason to take the transmission apart I'm going to install a Torson that I have had sitting on my desk for 2 years now...Of course they have gone up in price since I bought mine so maybe it was an investment...lol I j/k
