Nice work though OP.

+1

It looks too fake for my liking.

Why fake needles? Digital speed and RPM numbers would be sufficient ....

In the end it will be presumably cheaper for BMW to produce a fake LCD display in stead of real gauges and needles..........and will sell it as the latest and best gimmicks you must have....just marketing and cost effectiveness at its finest IMHO........

But should I like a LCD display because of that? No way ...........
