best gauge overlay

I am thinking white face, but at night what colors does it glow. Who makes the best looking one, pics would be great as well. Also, is it dimmer at night with the overlay, i read somewhere to get bulbs with it. Any info would be great, thanx.

white over silver?

I was wondering if there is some sort of general consensus on whether silver or white looks better for a black z28 with gray interior. Thanks for your help!!

I have silver-faced gauge overlays from MacEwen motorsports

I also have silver faced overlays from them for my HVAC controls, dimmer/lights switchpanel, and shifter gauge (A4). The numerals are black during the day and glow factory red with the lights on. A bit dimmer than stock, but I just turn the dimmer switch up a little to compensate

Installation is fairly painless too
