Default Chrome Gauge Trim

I saw someone on here with chrome gauge trim around their cluster but I can't find it now. Anyone have this? Or have a link for it? I think it looks real slick and wouldn't mind he addition

No way man...I got you beat @ 145mph Well my friend was taking the pic and I was driving so I don't know if that counts

BUT...the GS4's gearing is awesome. 3500revs at 110mph!!! I want I want! Maybe I'll switch over to the GS4 rear end lol. I know my car has enough power to push the wheels with that gearing with no problem

BB, this is a very simple modification you can add to your 98 - 00 GS, I've put it on mine. Plug and play - you need a different connector for the directional indicators that are moved a little on the new ones (better location IMO).

Carson / L-tuned parts can get 'em and knows the connector you need to do the retrofit.

My pic below isn't well lit to show the paint around the bezels but it is the same as the one pictured above.
