[QUOTE="Jr. Corvette, post: 264546, member: 1906"] Thanks!! Ya, it's chrome paint but actually looks more like a zinc finish. I did some testing and found that the chrome like finish produced a slightly brighter white glow on the gauges than the blue finish. I also found that because it was more reflective it seemed to reduce bright spots on the gauges and made it look more uniform. I went this route instead of LED strip lights because with strip lights if there is a light failure it's a much bigger job to fix it. Haven't tested it at night yet but I will post some pictures once I can test that. [/QUOTE]
