Default Post pics and opinions of flame guages!

I have seen one pic of the flame guages installed in a car, and I kinda liked them. Not ricey at all like I thought it would look. Please post your opinions and any pics you have.

I dont have them but im already kind fo sick of them. I don't like the black or white face they come on. I thought it was a cool idea at first but im not sure I'd buy them anymore. If they had a silver background I think it would look cooler. But too me, the silver would look cool with the black interior and black exterior paint. I don't know if they are really "ricey" they are just busy..

IMO, I also agree that it looks too busy. I'd just stay with the "K.I.S.S." principle ...

I have had them in my car for about 5 months now. They are awesome cause nobody i konw has anything like them. Noticed them at first for the first week or two but now they are no different then looking at the stock ones to me. Plus everyone that rides in my car at night thinks they are the coolest thing.
