: RBP Gauge Face
generalwar 03-01-2009, 05:58 PM I have been looking and looking for a high quality cluster replacement for my 09 2500HD, I think the search is over. Check out this sick cluster from RBP. The cost is $199.00 and the white needle kit is an extra $50.00 :D

Some other options too... These are from usspeedo. There are a few other vendors that make faceplates and needles as well.
Kenafin_02TA 03-01-2009, 07:23 PM USSpeedo and NuImage are the two brands I've been looking at when I get around to switchin mine out.
Brad92 03-01-2009, 08:00 PM the rbp looks awesome, and its really not that expensive
generalwar 03-01-2009, 08:44 PM USSpeedo and NuImage are the two brands I've been looking at when I get around to switchin mine out.
Here's the NuImage you mentioned, I like it, though it has a classic font that doesn't match anything else in the truck but still looks sick as hell.. I especially like the white by NuImage but the photo wont enlarge. Looks to be made by the same people.
Here's the NewImage

hailchaser 03-01-2009, 09:37 PM Those RBP's are sweet. Wonder what they look like at night?
Brad92 03-01-2009, 09:40 PM rbp all the way
generalwar 03-02-2009, 11:00 AM rbp all the way
Thanks! I'm going to call on it this AM.
sp8hardwood 03-02-2009, 11:37 AM Ive been looking at the RBP's too. They have that nautical look but a lot cheaper than others. They would compliment my boats nice too. (Any excuse to order something) lol
Brad92 03-02-2009, 12:48 PM the stock ones don't look that bad IMO. but the rbp is the best
generalwar 03-02-2009, 05:57 PM the stock ones don't look that bad IMO. but the rbp is the best
Just ordered the RBP's will post pics in my garage when done, thanks guys!
Nitros-Dmax 03-02-2009, 06:07 PM nice that is going to look killer
kilo6490 03-08-2009, 07:06 AM Dammit. Why don't they make one for the old body style. They look bad ass!!!
Nitros-Dmax 03-09-2009, 12:31 AM i know! would look sweet in my truck:D
sledog 03-09-2009, 12:44 AM There are a few other companies that make aftermarket faces, needles, and lenses for 07 and older GM. Usspeedo, Nuimage, PPE just to name a few....
down4bmx 03-10-2009, 12:07 AM RBP One is sick! Order me one too! LOL!
fordh8r 03-10-2009, 12:17 AM RBP One is sick! Order me one too! LOL!

Nitros-Dmax 03-10-2009, 02:11 AM oh boy my net skills are gone.. where is Nuimage's website
DMAX Will 03-10-2009, 02:35 AM I wish they made these for GMT-800s..
generalwar 03-10-2009, 06:32 PM Well, got the face in and.. Its not all that nice in person and when compared to the stock LMM cluster its a POS!
1. Its very flimsy and will not lay flat without glue
2. There's a total of [3] RBP logos backlit on the face
3. The plastic color behind the face is a joke its so cheap like light baggie plastic, and the blue doesnt match anything, its not really blue or turqoise.
Bottom line, don't do it guys I sent mine back.
Nitros-Dmax 03-10-2009, 07:04 PM shitty deals.. going with a different one now?
generalwar 03-10-2009, 07:14 PM shitty deals.. going with a different one now?

That sucks, they looked really nice in picture :(
Brad92 03-10-2009, 09:09 PM sorry man, they looked awesome from the pics
Bartman432 03-10-2009, 09:34 PM Generalwar, those guages look awesome. I like the RBP logo they put on them. I will have to order those.
Bartman432 03-10-2009, 09:37 PM Generalwar, I just read your latest comment about the guages once you gat a closer look at them. That's a bummer they didn't work out
generalwar 03-10-2009, 10:24 PM Thanks guys!
I was really surprised how crappy it was too, sucks.
Oh well stock aint that bad :o:
heymccall 03-10-2009, 10:37 PM Maybe they'll release these soon for the GMT-900

Your OEM gauge has never looked so alive.
SPY169 03-11-2009, 12:09 AM Sorry they did not work out, I liked the way they looked and was really looking forward to possibly trying these out as well, I appreciate the review, saves guys like us who were on the fence the time and trouble of dealing with them

Thanks Josh, My only advise would be if a guy wants to change the face out, then do the whole cluster. The problem is nobody makes a really nice one yet.
Otherwise your just buying a micro thin overlay.
Nitros-Dmax 03-11-2009, 10:14 PM good idea.. just have to wait untill one comes out now :mad:
