    Default Which colour should I go? All red or all white?

    So pretty much as the title says, I'm getting the new ute ASR'd and I'm playing with the idea of an all red conversion this time. I got all white in the Fox, but I thought I'd mix things up a bit this time.

    Anyone with a red dash, does it annoy you after a while or not?

    this is what i had last time


    This is what I'm looking at

    The white looks far better IMO.

    Definitely the white, the red looks way to crowded. But it's up to you, only you'll be looking at it.

    u could even mix up the red if its 2 much red. eg. red back round with white LCD and white needles 2 break it up? u can have pretty much any colour combo. yellow even suits red well.

    I was thinking maybe white screens with red everything else. On the VZ's the needles are white already so that works well.

    I find the red annoying and hard to read.

    ... Hence why I got Greg to change my standard red VE display to blue / white!

    I can't cope with the blue conversions - they hurt my eyes too much.
    I ended up doing this

    That doesnt look too bad mate, i personally would go white with red needles.
    Otherwise i reckon red would hurt my eyes late at night.

    Yeah I almost did that, but after driving around so much in an SSV I'm more or less certain that red won't affect me.
