Default New overlay options... Thougths for my car?

Here's a new overlay McNord just made for his own car...







Awesomeness

I'd LOVE to utilize this new feature on my own car but have NO CLUE what type of image to use that would compliment the car and not just stand out and take away...

Any thoughts?

That's sick.

Not sure what would go best in your car though? Depends on the theme you have going inside. Pic of your interior as it sits currently?

BTW, still contemplating those gauge needles, white ones. Green LED shining through red needles isn't too great...

so are you going to carry the red theme into the rest of your car? or just leave it all ebony? if you are gonna do red accented interior i would say do a red guage with red needles.

if you're leaving it all black, do like i suggested. grey overlay and what ever needles.

as far as an image for the gauge, i was thinking something like this...

I'm actually thinking of getting my seats with red stitching and maybe adding red suede inserts...

Image is cool, just tying to think outside of the box (outside of skulls)...

How about an evil looking catfish? Not cartoonish/silly but somewhat shark-ish looking, but still noticeable as being a catfish ...

kinda hard to give opinions as far as a design. i think you're gonna need to just think of something you feel will look right on there.

with that said, will this (graphics) be a new option with the next GP you just started? i finally got some money to do the last couple things i need to with my cars be fore selling them. so I'm really hoping i can get them out soon. and i definitely want to get in on this one, since it didn't work out on the last.

(edit* i just checked out the other thread, and saw the skull will be an option. but i'm still wondering if he'll be able to do other custom designs)
