tachman here
performance car graphis uses decals!! our prints are directly on the dial, we do not use decals, they look awful with bumps on the dial face
checkout www.tachman.com/mopar.htm

lilwendal does a good job, and charges a lot less than the other places: http://www.dodgecharger.com/forum/index.php/topic,37999.0.html

Lilwendal talks about the bumps, and how he avoids them with the decals.  I've seen new tic-toc-tachs, and other new gauges with painted faces that had fuzzy edges on the numerals.  They look fine on web sites, but in person they look like crap.  What do Tachman's look like?

what does tachmans look like, well, got to www.tachman.com/mopar.htm and you will see what the best work looks like. aint no bumps on silk screened dials, ever though we do offer overlays as an option, but they recieve the same care as on the dial printing. bead blast, correct paint, and careful installation, we dont like pimples on our dial faces either way!  :cheers:
