boost gauge mounting advice?

Post by Nitemare1 »

So anyone have any recommendations where to install a boost gauge and keep a semi factory look? any other time I would mount a new pillar, or cut whatever while still keeping it looking good of course..... this 91 SS has a 90 out of 100 interior and id like to keep it near stock looking as possible. anyone have a recommendation for a specific gauge that will match the factory grey? thanks!

Thanks

If positioned right, it just slightly obscures the center of the tach.
