studio57, were you able to mount the gauges behind the bezel?  It is hard to see, but from the pics you posted it looks like you kept the stock bezel in-tact and just got the aftermarket gauges to line up perfectly with the openings.

oldcarnut's is probably the best "custom" (ie from scratch) you'll find.  Skim the thread he linked and you'll see several different renditions.  Mine has been on a stand still...the waterjet guy has the last bezel and hasn't cranked anything out yet...
