custom dash
 

i started to make my dash and i can;t make my mind up on the placement of every thing what do you guys think?

tach, mph, fuel, fuel psi, water temp, water psi, volts, oil temp, oil psi, boost

How do you have an even number of small gauges? Shouldnt one be 'fuel' making it an odd number?

You want to be able to quickly focus on the tach and mph. I would center them at the top and then put 4 small gauges on each side.

...my bad - thought it was twins

Yes, the way I look at it is put speed & tach in top middle. Then, by order of relative importance - oil temp and oil psi at the top of the small gauges so they are easily read they are critical. I lost oil pressure one time due to a faulty line. Pumped my engine dry - guess what, I watch oil pressure like a hawk now.

I know its a daunting process - been there.

Picture 4 with the bigger gauges in the middle with the two smaller ones in between. Make those two smaller ones the most important ones to watch ( water and oil )

thats what i was thinging..make the two small ones the oil psi and water temp

Looks good. Is that air brushed or vinyl? Why even put a speedo in it unless its a GPS speedo? When I redid my gauges I didn't put a speedo back in because they are inaccurate and I use a handheld GPS to get my speed. I like the green color. I am thinking about painting my golf cart that color.

ALL PAINT, AND I HAVE A 9'' GPS chartplotter IN THE MIDDLE

How the heck do you paint the carbon fiber pattern??????

if i tell you i would have to kill you :lolhit: but its really easy

carbin look is done when u use a light color under then a dork coler sprayed over a drawer liner ruber mat woorks real good

i spray gun metal gray and silver as well to give it a woven look one more step make for a more real look.

this is it
 

well i am done with the designing an im happy , it came out really cool, what do you gus think?

looks great !

driver side
 

:whistle:

Just curious why you recessed the dash for the Gps? Won't that collect water, or are you mounting it with some type of backer plate between the dash and the unit?

you can't see them because of the angle but there are small drain holes in the bottom.

lookin good
