Re: Fugly gauges
honestly IMO the gauges are really ugly...I have an 04 on order and want to have those changed out before day 2.

Re: Fugly gauges
I think if Infiniti were to make the color similiar to the I35 sedan it would look great. I haven the I35 sedan as a loaner and I find the White Light to be much more pleasing to the eye and better looking. Funny thing is I think that it wouldn't be that hard to switch the color. I think that all the guage faces have clear plastic and the Stereo and AC/Compass read out have Amber Lenses. If you were to switch the lenses to clear and the back lit bulbs to that white color from the I35 I think it would be a great improvement. Maybe I'll get ambitious and try. Peace.

I have an ' 04 on order and I was thinking about collecting some samples of colored window tinting film to put over the gauge lens. I've seen it available in red and blue, and I figure I may be able to shift the stock amber color toward orange or green this way. Has anyone here tried this yet?
Re: Fugly gauges
Am I the only one who actually likes the color of the guages? It looks kinda sporty in that Orange Color [img]/w3timages/icons/smile.gif[/img]

Re: Fugly gauges
a while back when I was interested with the IS300 and reading some of their forums, One of the members switched the colors of their gauges to a real nice blue. It was a major PITA and he didn't recommend it to anyone else on the forum after he did it :P
here's a pic of when it was half done, also to show you what the color was like before. note: the link shows much better pics.

Here are some pics of hte finished product
