Anyone refinish their gauge pointers/needles?

yep, did them...

They come off pretty easy, with a fork as long as your gentle with em.
Brush painted on, but a toothpick helps to get the paint to roll into the thin/tiny area just on the base of the needle.
I also went back and brush painted the black base of the needle.
Dont put the paint on too thick, since the backlight on the cluster is what shines through, allowing the needle to light up in the dark.
From the factory, they are painted on the backside. Mine still shine through decent with them painted on the frontside, with a couple coats of paint.
But wow does it make the gauge cluster look 10 times better.
