painted gauge faces? where to buy?!

Ok after reading K Man's seat belt install, it seems fairly simple so I am going to order red seat belts for my silver Cayman. I would also like to get the red gauge(s) face plate to match! Is there anywhere to find this part? I am planning on painting my calipers red as well to complete the theme. Thanks for any help

They were ordered that way as an option. Call sponsor Bumperplugs and see if they can paint them for you.

this is a mod that i have wanted to do for quite some time . i have found that the only route at the moment if you want different color guage faces is to order them directly from Porsche (aftermarket companies do not have colored guage faces for 987 model porsches yet) . from there , you can get the dealer to install them for you .

i ordered my gauges in the sand beigh color to match my interior. I would think this would be very very expensive and alot of work to try to get the gauges painted, , not sure you could even order them separately from Porsche. Mine do look really cool though..

RUF makes a different guage set for the Cayman. Maybe they also offer them in colors???

Anyone think this would be a better font?

Personally, I've found the red gauges illegible in daylight & not close to Guards Red in color, however to each his own. A friend optioned red gauges on his GR CS, but didn't like them. The dealer swapped them out for the standard gauges at no charge. I'm pretty sure the dealer still has the red guages that came out of the car. If anyone is interested I can check if they are for sale. I'm sure the price would be attractive.
