    White gauges can look half way decent, i don't know why but they are very hit and miss for me. But as for the whit controls.....no, that will look like shit imo

          i liked the white gauge look back 10yrs - but that passed quickly

          im not a fan of coloring interior components that werent meant to be that color originally - screams rice

                I think it'll look ok. You have the white leather, right? Maybe you could do the stereo bezel and the vent inserts too, to tie it all together. Think about doing the 'vert latch points. And when you do, take pics so I can see if I want to do it or not.

                Seriously though, I've been thinking about this for quite some time, and our cars are identical. I would say do it, you can always change it back if you don't like it. (and sell the parts to me)

                  White face gauges, yes.

                  White controls, no.

                      my guages are different, but i am not sure i like the white controls, i might go with white face guages, the only problem is that all i have found is this kit which is overlays and i am not shure if they are removeable if i decide i dont like the look,
