pimp the background out in white and insert a black light in your dash..

And put some of the UV activated stuff on the needles :P

OK ive got the step by step in photo shop.

 

1. Scan the image in.

2. Use your magic high light tool to outline all the text, numbers and markings you need

3. Copy the selected parts and then past them onto a new layer.

...

4. Edit them until you are satisfied.

 

I just inverted it then cleaned it up.

5. Clean the back ground layer up. First turn you dial layer off so you can see easier. You can add a image now if you want.

6. Turn the dial or layer 1 if you haven't named it back on

 

Done :D

 

 

The reason why i didn't clean the entire back ground up was that most of it is not seen 1cm below the straight line.

 

 

 

HIJACKED! :P

Printed out :P

Nick: Your stickers are actually layered aren't they (as opposed to printed)?

Hmm interesting, because the red line of the gze start at about 8000rpm... As Fook said before are they layered? Because the shinny gloss looks real hot :P

 

Ok, test fits with paper prints.

Hey wow, that's pretty cool. Maybe if you printed them on photo paper... Hey then you can like put a photo of your face in the background :P

Put a hot chick in the back ground :P

Or a Teletubby. Better yet, you can have one that goes:

 

Speedo:

 

Stop

Slow

Cruisin

Fast

Very fast

OMG fast!

 

And then for your tacho you could have:

 

Engine off

Idle

Power start here

Power end here

Red line

BOOM!

 

Or something silly like that. Or, you could take away ALL the lines and just have 0, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110. And that's it. :D

 

Or you could have:

 

Stopped

School Zone

Residential area

Most roads

Rural stuff

Big roads

Slow highway

Normal highway

Fast highway

 

:P

 

I'm silly.
