place to purchase guage faces

Is buying new guage faces better than actually buying a new guage cluster

I want to change the faces of my guages from black to Yellow. I drive a silver car, but my theme of the car is silver/black/yellow

2 of our Boxster owners have used their faces with no issues. The trick for the light issue is to wrap a thin piece of tape around the edge of the dial before you put the new face on. The yellow line is pointing to the black pin stripe tape we use.
