could you flip the left side to place the gauges closer and make it feel more symmetrical?

$100 is too steep for a piece of plastic, otherwise I would buy one...

they look outta place, they dont match the countours of the factory ones, plus you got the one on the driver side and passenger side which will now not match.

Again, I didnt make these nor am I making and selling these... I came across them, and am putting them in my car... I like the look, and they do sit flush... I didnt put them in all the way completely because I didnt want to accidentally break them or damage seeing as thats the only set in existence... I didnt set the price nor am I trying to make any money on these... I am merely offerring what I came across to other members on here... So if you dont like em, great, if you do great, if you want some PM me and I'll put you in touch with the guy that is making them, if you dont then thats fine too, its your car... So please dont OM about price being to high or anything like that.. When I get my set made, and my new gauges in I'll post pics... Again I was just offerring something that not a single company makes and another place to mount gauges... Thanks

I also think that would make a big difference. I dont see that happening with this paticular design though as it looks like you would have one gauge angled towards the right side.

$100 bucks?

Looks a lot like this....https://ls1tech.com/forums/showthrea...=1#post9168995



Labor cost is important, but i had a total of $15 & 90 minutes of my time invested in this project. Think $100 is a bit steep. Just my $0.02

Spooky... I just dropped off a template for the same thing with my waterjet guy last week. We already make A/C vent deletes for gauges (single vent and full, both vents) and I just had him add lines for air to come thought.

Not as complex as this piece (which I think looks very nice) but also only $60 shipped for a full replacement or $40 shipped for each side. Sorry no pics yet... PM for info, don't hijack this thread.

I think he meant he is not making them or making any profit off the items; he is simply passing along a pic to see if anyone else would want a product that has not been available.

However, I'd hold out a bit to see what 6LiterEaterDesigns comes up with. Great quality and good prices, can't beat 'em!

that doesnt look bad at all. i would probably flip the drivers side vent over putting the guages side-side and the vents towards the outside
