The chrome looks richer from my point of view / have to agree on the white dial faces though , they would look great Very Happy

Chrome rings for a bit of bling, & the '06' is just a little bit retro anyway! Very Happy
Those white faces suit the '06' spot on, only 3 lights & it redlines at 11,000! Twisted Evil

Silver looks classic / retro. Black more "now"

Love the white backgrounds though.

SS Ducati's had them & they looked great !

Cheers,
