    Gauge Questions

    My idea is to have the gauges made into the vinyl either for over the mirror or for above the door. no attaching over the trim. Tate

    Gauge Questions

    I just think a more seamless look would be cool. The gauges over you mirror are they mounted to the trim strip or are they part of the strip? I'm just brainstorming.Tate

    Dumb ?

    Feel free to make fun of me if you want... A friend of mine (really) told me about "throttle body spacers" and how they are supposed to help out hp and save fuel.
