I've got an old Saab VDO fuel gauge that I'd like to change the gauge face to a more Porsche looking face. Any ideas on how to make your own gauge face that doesnt look like crap after being exposed to sunlight etc?

I'm hoping there is someone on World with the skill to do gauge faces. I would like a set of green face gauges and even though there are gauge companies that can do it for me, I'm hoping someone here can keep it "in house".

I am having him update mine to what over the winter. He might be the source you need. |

I'm sure I could have them custom make what I want but there's a good chance someone on world can do it. The guys here always amaze me with their skill and knowledge. I actually think it would be a great addition for 914rubber. |
