What are these gauges made of? - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I'm looking at ideas for custom clusters I'm wanting to make for my car and I cam across this site.

I absolutely love how they have the fuel gauge illuminated and see through like that.

Anyone know what material that is and where I can get something like this made? Or where I can get the material to make them? And I am only taking about the lights and gauges on the sides no the entire cluster itself.

Thanks for the response I honestly didn't realize that was Lexan glass. Anyone know how the text was etched or printed on there?

Dude, an extremely simple trip to google would help you find what the etching it.

Laser Etching/Engraving. Come on man.
