    Speedo face peeling

    Bloomin' thing started peeling a while ago and isn't looking too hot now Anoying in a way as I won a set of plasma gauges at Billing but the temptation of a remap was too high :mischeif:

    What options are there and cost.

    Decent secondhand speedo - £? - hens' teeth.
    New speedo - £150? - NLA?
    Bo's Plasma gauge set.
    Replacement gauge face - aftermarket?

    Anyone know of companies to contact regarding getting a batch of faces made up? Might be the best idea as I'm not alone in having a crusty face

    if your a computer-haxXor^ deluxe you maybe could make your own in photoshop etc etc and print out on photopaper etc?

    just a thought..

    One thing i've learned we are way behind the Scandinavians!

      Does anyone have a speedo face they have removed from their car that they don't want any more? I am going to start contacting manufacturers and could do with a sample part as I need the one in the car to avoid the dibble, not having a speedo isn't an excuse unfortunately...

        Id say bo's latest plasma's are the best looking and cost effective option.

            when I bought my brand new speedo face it was £108 quid

            when I sold it to s2driveruk to help him out it was a LOT less than that but it helped him so I didn't mind.

                It was when vagparts was open, I got it from them brand new in the box for £108, then sold it to s2driveruk for something like £20 as it was in the way and wanted to help him out

                  I have a complete set in realy nice condition, the two retaining screwholes are broken where some **** has overtightened them but maybe with larger washers, cant see it with the trim fitted. Can get photos if reqd. PM me with an offer. regards Steve.
