only MSP's got silver needle hoster things. some MP3 and non-MSP guys will buy our clusters because they want them.

correction...only 03.5 MSP's

 

[yudkib]

did not know that. in any case, it looks "very good" with black needle holders and "freaking amazing" with the silver ones. see wagonbacker's pic.

well that blows. does anyone know how to make it look like that then? power coating im thinking or sumthin

 

[yudkib]

don't try.
if my memory serves me there's about 2 documented cases of people removing the needles and getting them back on. and when you break them, you have to buy a new cluster.

 

[43975]

maybe matching silver nail polish would work

liar... you did not. lol

Ask 323 I only mess with you if I like you. LOL. If not i am a complete ass.(wedge) I am even on your side with the unmentionable debate.

[yudkib]

hopefully ill be going to the shop next week to start putting this mess back together.
i dont want to say we have to start from scratch, but theres a lot of picking up to be done.
