I'm not going to lie Sev I actually really like the things you're adding to your car.

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.

"rickrolling" is considered malicious code, it will be deleted and you will get points.
