I might have some interest in this. What's the projected cost and timeline?

I personally like the mix of leaving the tach red. I did that on my previous car actually. I'd jump in but I'm in NorCal.

For $200 I'd be totally in but we probably need like 50 people hahaha.

Looks super clean but the radio lights would also have to be white so it all matches.

It's mostly labor is my guess. The lights themselves don't really cost, but you have to think about the work behind what's being done.

It does look like a Lexus in terms of cluster colors but BMW has been about the orange cluster and there's no way I can justify spending half a thou on leds. There's actually a DIY for those who wants to tackle this project but reluctant to spend that much. Cool concept but its just not for me.
