Customised IPK (speedo) faces
 
From a thread I was on today we were talking about speedo calibration when I came up with the idea of reprinting the clock faces to show true speed rather than speed + safety margin.

Well, one thing I have never seen on offer was personalised clock faces suited to you or your car.

So here we are, step 1, market research ...

I have done a few quick samples, these are just to test the water and everything is totally customisable as long as you display the range of speeds etc. some are garish and minimalist for the boy racers and I can do elegant ones for the traditionalists out there.

I would like from you some feedback and an idea of how many people may want one...

I intend to have a standard set of designs for ZT-V6-V8 and 75's with logos or names / images as a custom number.
These would be simple to fit or fitted for a fee..
I am going to aim for 10-15.00 for standard and more for 1 off custom jobs (maybe 20-25 dependent on artwork or photo inclusion etc.).

These can be on gloss or matt finish, with white, crème or silver background.

Here are a few examples to test the water, tacho side would be similar to suit.
Please post to this Thread with comments or suggestions.
Members will of course pay less than anyone else if this takes off and yes I will do a club badge one if it's ok with the board??

Sounds like a great idea to me.
But there's just one thing which a true speedo will do is highlight just low slow some people drive! You all know what I mean- your driving behind someone in a 30mph zone and your over reading speedo is showing 27mph so with a true speedo what person in front is doing 23mph!

Even worse when you're in a 60mph zone and your speedo is showing 40mph :duh:

These will be calibrated to exactly the same as current speedo's, no change
