IIRc, the gauges can be red at night, Olddragger has his setup that way, when the lights are turned on, and it looks very nice.

I like your gauge pod, but not so much the piano black finish. and as said, the 8 ball really ruins the look, and while the autoart model is detailed, I don't know that hanging off the dash is the right place for it.

Sexy gauges! But not a really big fan on the hood.

I really like your idea to paint the hood white, since you now have a 3 color scheme goin with the paint/hood/wheels that clashes a bit IMO. I only like the CF look if the rest of the car has black or bronze accents (wheels, tint, ect..) Whatever you like counts the most. Guage pod is HOT, not huge fan of the 8 ball and hot wheels.
