2008 Nu Image Painted Gauges

Here are some pictures of my newly installed custom NU Image gauge overlay painted to match the color of my truck. The Installation wasn't too bad except for when it came to getting the needles back on and I didn't like that the new gauges didn't have a sticky back to them to stick on the plastic like the stock gauges did. I plan on doing a FULL Write up on the install with some pictures of the needles off and how to get the connectors off and pictures of where all the screws are soon.

my cover for the gauges is a lil scratched up.. someone insisted on helping me clean, but didn't check for rocks in the rag before wiping down the plastic cover.. Does anyone know where I can get a new one?

I agree. Check out Meguiar's Direct Plastic Cleaner/Polish.

A little 3M polishing compound will take those scratches out on the clear face plate. They look good man.
