    The car came with 2 tachos (stock and monster) and the Monster Tacho is more accurate

    Guage

    Hey dude,
    was wondering what guage you got next to your shifter.
    I noticed you got damage next to your ash tray (not the two holes).
    My car has the same i want to know what it's from because it looks like it's peeling off.:)

    kimmys~vs~calais~sII the damage next to the ashtray could be caused by a mobile phone kit. I also had my tacho there when i bought my car so i have a few holes there.

    and Younggun I have not even dragged in this car yet, I have wanted to for ages but no one wants to give me a go. It sux but I still think some of those rices could give it a go.

    Chev badge has been gone for a while now, I did not think it was right to have it there because I dont in fact have a chev, but it was there when i bought it, as for the tacho that also came with the car but i like it so i will keep it, it will come in handy one day and my dash tacho is actually stuffed now.
