CF and I am in!!!  I have been looking for more CF to add to my Autometer gauges.

Yeah, I'm thinking CF too. The brushed alum just doesn't look right IMO.

We'll see...I have a few more things up my sleeve for the 850, and think in the long run the CF will look best because it's dark. The people that wanted alum will just have to trust me.

Slater,

I would like one in either Black or CF. 

I will still need to purchase EST's white gauges as well unless you have a solution for that. :D

Don't do that just yet. I have a solution for that, as well as a little somethin special.

That's one of the reasons I don't think brushed alum would look all that good. It looks OK against the stock black gauge faces, but not against lighter faces...

I can't wait to find out what u've got cooked up for the gauges :)

CF with some polished metal rings to go around the gauges would be hot.

I approached the company that makes EST's gauge overlay kits about making a brushed aluminum one for us - afterall, they have the template already, right?

They were interested... for about 3 seconds, then dropped it.

Not really sure why. They make them for 'lesser-model' cars like Chrysler LeBarons (on Ebay), why not ours?

No, it couldn't. It would only cover the gauge portion.

Like this terrible brushed aluminum rendition:

For some reason I look at that picture and think "SouthPark."

I'd be down for something like gauge surround rings. Black everything except the rings.
