just wondering if anyone knows a company that makes face guages for our cars in different colors for the raised rev limiter since 99% of us are chipped. Thanks.

Why don't you just take it to North Hollywood Speedometer and have them paint the thin indicator line at 6800 rpm from red to white ? Lines on the tach beyond that are already " red " so you'll be set.

While they have your gauge cluster out, , might as well have them paint the area above 7000 rpm solid red. As you know, those thin red lines are impossible to see with peripheral vision at speed.

Actually, I want to order some white gauge faces and then have them paint it so the redline is at 7k rpms in red. Thanks for the help. I am going to give them a call.
