Guage panel restoration.

The needles were faded...


So I repainted them. I also used Zymol cleaner wax to polish the background.


I made new warning lamp covers from sheets of translucent plastic. They were glossy so I sanded them with 2500 grit paper to knock the gloss down to match the original peices better. I had to stack abunch of them together to darken them up and they're still a little brighter than the old ones but that just makes them stand out better. The decals were printed in reverse then applied to the backside of the lens like the factory did them.








Put together with bead blasted and satin black painted frame. New outer lens.
