I have seen it in person and it is pretty nice, you just can't really see the far gauge very well.

VDO gauges are way cheap, but very functional.

The pics on their website are from my car I installed them last year and they have worked perfectly. The vdo guages are cheap, but they work well and I would rather spend the $500 I saved on something to make my car faster. Most people think the gauges are stock when they see them. My only wish would be that the panel sat flush in the dash, at least the gauges are sunk so they are flush on the panel. I had talked to Evan about this and he told me he would work on it after they got settled in their new shop. Looks like he has been busy.

Yeah, I think I'm going to get some. If you go to the link and look at the bottom of the page, they are coming out with a new panel that sits flush! Thats what I'm going to buy.

That looks nice. If you want to see my panel in person I will be down there for the weekend Mar.4-6.

Looks like I will be down there this weekend too, if you want to see it.

No problem, like I said, I would take it if you were not interested.

Looks like I am in for the dyno on Saturday so I am making the trip down.

Jake, just let me know when you want to do it. You may have to drive up to my house so I can put it in. I hate not having the tools and stuff that I need.

Ok, prob a Monday or Wednesday would be best...or maybe a Sunday...not gonna be able to do it before the dyno for sure though...
Anyway, the main point of this post, is I just saw an Apex Silver one by the University of Utah, not standard Utah plates (some organization or something, couldn't tell what) and a front plate too...I flashed the peace sign...was that anyone on here? Or someone who hasn't discovered Evom yet?

My cousin just had a silver one shipped in a couple of days ago, and it might have been him. I'm sure he will start posting soon.
