Searching those Gauge Trim Rings for \'97 GTS

I think it was at MGW a few years ago when i saw a set of Billet/Alloy satin trim Rings that fit around the Gauges.
Are they available Online somewhere?

I agree - I've never been tempted to buy anything from them - they are quite proud of their stuff, evidently. Money better spent on performance mods.

Re: Searching those Gauge Trim Rings for \'97 GTS

I actually have a brand new set of billet gauge surrounds that I will sell you for $100.00 and that will include shipping. I have a 2000gts and bought a set and when I got them I noticed they are the exact same thing that I already had. I didnt realize I already had them on the car. Pm if you are interested, they are in perfect conditon and still in the packaging. The set includes 2 large rings for the tach and speedo, 4 small for the oil,fuel,temp, and battery Venom1

Why just do it for pizza and beer? I'd bet you can get 5 guys here willing to pay $50 for em. I'd be one of them thats for sure. Just make sure you get yours for free. :)

Re: Searching those Gauge Trim Rings for \'97 GTS

I believe I might be interested. Hi, I'm new here in case your wondering. Purchased my first Viper last year (96 RT in white/Blue). What do you all think these would look like with a carbon fiber trim kit? It was already on the car...

I talked to George at MGW and he thinks they might come out with some soon.

I hope they are in Chrome?

Re: Searching those Gauge Trim Rings for \'97 GTS

I may be selling mine soon.

WHY, you don't like them?

No, I liked them. But I now have have an Autometer fuel pressure guage, and the AEM wideband in place of fuel and voltage guages (boost on column). They have black bezels so I decided to just go back to black. You can polish the black bezels to match the rings, but that is a p.i.t.a.

Do you have a picture of it while still on the gauges? I have not seen one but might be interested of doing it also. Depending........ Thanks.

Re: Searching those Gauge Trim Rings for \'97 GTS

Sorry Simms, I don't like it. IMHO, it looks cheesy. Maybe if the whole console was in CF or leather, it would look better. You can call me Simon (of American Idol fame) of the VCA.

Actually, it does look like asss in the pictures. The flat finish dash looks real bad with the flash of the camera. In person it looks much better.
