I don't get on here as much as I'd like to so sorry for the late response. I've disassembled and resoldered new lighting into almost all of my gauges and displays. My gauge numbering and dials are all done in cool white while all LCDs are blue. On/off indicators for HVAC will eventually be white but I had run out of LCDs at the time. The display next to my start/stop button is an HKS EVC6-IR boost controller

Edit: Oh, and I ripped out the clock LCD, work in progress to build on and refine another member's Arduino project.

I have not but plan on doing so soon. I will be using Adam's Swirl Killer with their pads on their website. I have also heard Hex Logic pads by Chemical guys are great as well per Junkman

Bought my Series Hyper Blue in Spring 2016. Since then, I've attached a HKS V3 Supercharger and other goodies. I've kept the general look of the car OEM, however. The blue paint is shouty enough.
