VERY interested in this... I don't know if you have seen the 380 GT (might be in lower specs too, can't remember exactly) speedo, but it has the chrome rings around it, and it looks sweet. Was thinking of making some up myself, but wouldn't have been as pro as getting a plastic moulder to make it. Let me know the progress on this!

nope, a rough estimate will be around the $40 dollar mark
also going to make a full fascia bezel on exchange basis too ( like a brush aluminium with the rings, a woodgrain with the rings, will match up AWESOMELY with the vrx white dials)

i was planning to buy a few lengths of aluminium tube in the diameter of the speedo and tacho for a second gen, and turn rings off the tubes using a metal lathe.....
