I think just using the middle overlay would look pretty cool. If tastefully done ovcourse

I think the middle gauge looks kind of cool. Not really something I would put on an Evo but reminds me of something you might see on an exotic. Remember it's your car. If you like it that's all that matters.

Your username does have "civic" in it, so I can see how you would like this

Evo's are pretty much the new Civics anyway...


Re: the gauges though... I actually really like them. I don't think they'd look that good in the car, but I'd need to see it.

True that^^^^^ . I think if you just used the rpm gauge it would look pretty nice. 99% of people never even driven in a Ferrari to know the difference.

these gauges reminded me of the JDM gauge clusters that were offered back in the 90's .

The MPH gauge looks better but too much red in the tach along with yellow. Also, it still says Lancer... You would think they would've made the one that says Evolution to go with it but no.

I wouldn't mind this color scheme but that yellow in the middle is just terrible.

Fwiw, I'm sure if this chap is making these, he's probably open to having it say whatever you want. On my Evo 5 I had overlays with the diamondstar on the speedo, and I had indiglo needles or some nonsense. Looked really nice, but I'd never do it now. I'm too boring. (Says the guy with red Ralliart flaps on his WW)
