Matt H Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 I'm toying with the idea of changing the colour of the Metal Monkey Dials I have. Currently, they're white, but I'm quite partial to the black of the stock dials. Any advice on how to do this before I jump in? Or perhaps why I should or shouldn't change the colour?..

Mike Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 Why don't you just buy stock ones instead of all of that arsing about? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt H Posted August 17, 2009 Author Share Posted August 17, 2009 Why don't you just buy stock ones instead of all of that arsing about? These go up to 220mph and don't say kph on them, plus they have the brushed effect which i would hope to retain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimonT Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 That took all of 30 seconds to read but very entertaining Like the idea Matt but think you would lose the effect of the dials that you currently like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukenukem Posted August 17, 2009 Share Posted August 17, 2009 (edited) Are you not gonna just end up with the needles going round and back again on nicely coloured but somewhat blank background, or have I missed something rather crucial here? EDIT: Wait a minute... are these those metal dials with the numbers cut out rather than just printed on the top? Ignore me....
