Well, painting might be one way to go, but if your like me, your not a profesional painter, and this might be a bad idea. What i did on my jeep was i took the guages out (try not to remove the needles. this will make the future much easier, and cheaper! i F-ed up my fuel guage by taking off the needle and had to buy a new one for $30) and use a computer to scan them. Do some simple editing by changing the colors how you want them, print them in the best quality you can on some glossy photo paper, get some double sided tape, cut out the gauges and do a mock up to make sure they fit very well, and apply the double sided tape, and BOOM, awsome look'n gauges that look how you want them! another way to set off you guages after this is to get new colored bulbs for them. it will really look nice at night with white face gauges and blue bulbs (well, at least i think mine does). if you have n e questions on doing this, just email me.
