My favorite is the chrome instrument panel. I remember seeing a thread of yours a while ago mentioning you bought them from some german guy on ebay.de .

If I had more money and time I would start putting more interesting "effects" into my 300D.

Have you considered changing the way the instrument cluster illuminates? I've wanted to see if using a blacklight bulb would add the glow effect that newer cars have.
not black light, but I used a blue LED and painted my needles with a correct color, UV reactive paint.

I'll probably go back to white once they burn out, but you might like this look.
