^ thanks!!! I'm really proud of those.
MOAR GAUGES!!! Took me a while, but I got some of my most complex designs working with the new process.
Here's the latest Gen3 upgrades. Please note if you order ANY gauge set from my store, you'll be supplied with Gen3 stuff. You don't have to wait for me to post pix of them.
GT-40 NA
Alpha NA
Fallen NA
Cosmos NA
and a day-night transition to show the stars coming out of the Milky Way.
and lastly...
DOGE NA

10AE NB
This one came out really nice. Better lighting than I've been able to achieve before. I was never able to have that blue ring light up with the Gen2 stuff.
MX-8 NB
These ones are redesigned for greater accuracy to the original RX8 gauges. They're basically exact replicas at this point.
Barcode NA
and lastly... a pet project of mine for the past 7 years.
1028 NA
This is the most accurate possible homage to the original M2-1028 gauges as possible. It took me years and 4 full redesigns to get this level of accuracy.
In white lighting, same as the original M2 gauges.

Rocket NA
Rossa 180 NA
Dragstrip NB
These are SO pretty in person! The colors are insane.

After reviewing Adam's excellent lighting comparison, I'm left with one (I hope) simple question:
Why no pictures/examples of white/clear Gen3's with OE bulbs/green condoms?
I should have asked this prior to Sharksgiving, but here I am.
If this is an oversight, and you have the time... any chance you have some Version 1002's you could demo this with?
Thanks, sorry for the terrible timing, I'm sure you're busy. -Matt

No chance of this until many months from now. Sorry. I've not even been able to answer my custom order emails. There's dozens sitting. There's over 100 in the queue. There's MANY more standard orders than that in the regular order queue.
They look pale green and pretty horrible. Sorry... just not too great with the stock condoms and white lighting.

Every time I see a new set I can't believe my eyes because they just get better and better each year!!

Kyle,
UPGRADE RIGHT NOW !!!!
The new Generation 3 faces are light years ahead of everything else!!!
What can I say here, Adam @ Revlimiter.net is THEE MAN when it comes to custom gauges. I have seen his work on some other nice cars in the bay area, however this is my first time seeing his brand NEW Version (Generation 3) gauges in person. Wow, this new version is just spectacular in person, with the wrinkle finish, richer colors, better lighting, and more depth in the numbers, and a more durable material he is using now, its just crazy how great these look!!
All I can say is do yourself a favor and go buy some Revlimiter gauge faces now, dont think about it any longer! If you have older REV faces, or Dewa faces, just sell them and buy his new version, you cannot go wrong!!
I tried to take photos of mine, but heck even Adam's photos dont do these faces justice, you really have to see these in person!! Thank you Adam for such a great product for our Miatas!!
Revlimiter Gauge faces and ArtWorks Dewa Metal = so much win !!! by Randy George, on Flickr

My first custom set was printed this weekend and is safely in the hands of UPS. Too excited to wait and get them installed before sharing.
It started with two core elements. An Omega Speedmaster I received as a gift linked to an incredible project I worked on over twenty years ago at the very beginning of my career. Its the only watch Ive worn since
That and critically for me, finding a way to incorporate my brother Dans initials so we could really make this a tribute to him. He had an incredible attention to detail so there was a lot between the two elements we had to work from.
Adam and I did a ton of back and forth to talk about the details and I consistently was blown away by his different ideas. His design time was over six hours and I cant be more thankful that he put up with all my feedback and suggestions along the way.
The center of the Omega has a guilloche pattern that I never imagined Adam could even possibly recreate. But of course he did. He actually did before I even had the chance to ask him if such a thing was possible. The font for all the dials is perfect. Speedo and Tach both mirrored the numbers on the watch face down to the slight yellow tint that the luminescence gave. The gas, oil and temp gauges pull the same font from other parts of my Chronometer. The Oil gauge at the top mirrors the top gauge on my Chrono down to the red numbers and specifically how the markers are denoted. Fuel and temp also use fonts from the letters and numbers of the smaller gauges on my watch. I asked Adam to design the gauges to accommodate my AWD metal overlays but given the finished product I dont expect I will ever cover up the Speedo and Tach given how they turned out.
I could not be more touched by these. For me, they are perfect and to Dan I am certain he would have been very proud. Proud and excited that someone like Adam was out there to be able to tackle a project like this with such incredible results.
Adam has also kindly added them to his custom gauge page here. He remains one of the best contributors to our community, a dear friend and an incredibly talented human being. Thank you again and a million times more Adam.

Quick update as I finally got them installed into my own cluster. Adam’s work is unrivalled and the Gen 3 gauges raised the bar to another level. Having had the privilege to collaborate on a very personal design with him was amazing. Any expectations I may have had were blown away and I couldn’t be happier.
