opinions please

I have reconditioned my 6 dial dash.

It was the old woodgrained with the silver surrounds and it was very tatty.

What do you think of this?

    Da Superlites come in Silver, Charcoal or a light gold colour. Prices for full packs;

    15x6 = $1600
    15x7 = $1600
    15x8 = $1670
    16x7 = $1700
    16x8 = $1700

    Add $50 for coloured centres other than Silver

    I work at Wheelworx ph - 08 8371 5711 and ask for the one and only RACIN JASON!
    Hope this helps.

    Oh and that dash looks KILLLLLLLER! Suits the car perfectly - not too much....not to little, that's a wild solour combo for such a unique car (well it is a 4 door!)

    Keep up the good work Doctor Pepper!

    mad mk1, I am sorry I haven't supplied more photos[:I]

    she's away having her new heart installed. As soon as she returns, i will post some more pix[:x)]

    by the way I have made a slight change to the dash as I felt it was missing something. It took a little while to figure out what it was....... it was the little indicator needles, so I gave them the treatment, now all is complete.[(#)][(#)]

    RED Pepper 4 door:-

    OK, she's back and the new heart breathes life. It was a long wait for the new donk, (8 months, but who is counting at mates rates) but it was well worth the wait. 1300 is gone, 1600 is is now some 1720cc's. Extractors, 2.5" exhaust all the way thru and twin 40mm Dellorto's, LOUD yippppeeeeee!!!!!!!

    First run on the dyno, without any tuning came up with 46.5 RWK, not bad first run. I now have to run it in and then it goes in for some fine tuning and I am told that 60 RWK is easily possible.

    An electronic "Magna" dizzy is being fabricated that should boost that output again

    Red Pepper 2 dr:-

    Now for the 2 door, and in goes the 2ltr, well as soon as I can enlist dad's help...........[88][(#)][:I]

    I will post some pix as soon as I can.
