My personal preference for gauges is Prosport:

And if you want a v2 lip like what you are describing, I would say your best bet is nasioc.

Thanks all. yea i was looking up Prosport gauges but couldnt find a triple pod so i was planning on buying the premium amber/white 60mm gauges but they are a little pricey...rather have 60 than 52 and they only have them as premium but they do look cool with the warning light. I want the lip that looks like this one http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/SUBAR...Q5fAccessories

yea i was planning on getting the triple pod. since they have a nice one for wrx/sti's. I think the ATi one on this site looks nice http://www.jscspeed.com/wrx/interior/clock_pods.htm plus its cheaper then the defi even tho they look exactly the same

I'd say try the lip and let us know. That or do some searches if anyone else has used it. I think the big diff between knock-off and quality plastic-type body add-ons is that the quality stuff will survive more abuse because they used better material. That and fitment.
