Looking good
Ditto here.

I went to the web site to look at the options and it looks like a really good service - picking your colours and logos etc - and like Mike said the 270deg sweep looks great.

Like you I figured I'd get past 200kph (125mph) and wanted to see where I got to - so I got the next step up in the VDO range that was 300kph (187mph)- also got the smaller of the two guage sizes. Its all a bit squishy really and so far I haven't really had time to check my speed on a track - too busy checking oil/water/rpm/breaking markers.

I think those gauges are going to be nice and easy to read while you're going at it.
