Actually it does not look as bad as you would think. I did not think It would look good at all until I got done. I like you did not want to replace gauges. If you can pick up a set of used bezels they can be stripped down to polished alum, thats what I did. These bezels were teal green before I started. The teal coating was just a layer of plastic over the already polished alum.

What did you use to strip the coating?

It is a secret...... laquor thinnner. Soak them for about 10 minutes and it peels off to a very nice polished finish underneith.
