sounds like you got off pretty good and inexpensive for your dash. I just purchased every single piece to compeletely replace my dash, came up to about $5k for everything......I did not want refurbished guages and I am going for a certain look for mine. I also got the carbon fiber guages, they are bada$$!

I'd love to paint my plain white dash but, any idea where to get the lettering to label everything again?

SpeedFreek,

Have you thought about wrapping it?? I dont think it would be too expensive and they should be able to make it any color you want. Just a thought.

The company the wraps it can print whatever you want on the wrap. Just like a boat wrap. They can print the engravings.
