I've had the KB setup on my GN for the better part of ten years and it's worked flawlessly in all climate conditions. It's a VDO gauge, BTW.
Bought the gauge and cup from Autometer, made up the line and bought the fitting at the fuel rail. I made the bracket and added the junkyard emblem.
Scroll down and click on the picture of the gauge for a close up view.
Cheap and sharp.

I just made a set up and it looks killer.
the only thing i bought from KB was the holder cup $20.00, his gauge is worth but S**** but that is my own opinion, then i went to a performance shop and bought the 21/6 fuel pressure gauge from autometer $44.00, and whalla, the Kit from kenny bell requires drilling hole on the hood, which i did not want, so i bought heavy duty double sided tape and it works perfect, that thing wont come off even if your going 200mph, which ours cars will never do
, and i did not have to drill holes on my hood or anywhere else, if you want some pics i can email them to you, just email me at matanovich@hotmail.com I think my set up looks good.

I just took a piece of cardboard and bent it till it looked pretty close then transferred that to aluminum. It took some time but it was pretty easy. Mine requires no holes, uses the hood lamp holes plus I added two others. You could simply add rivnuts instead to have it just as secure through the factory holes. As for the contours on the sides, that is just a paint can radius blended into the width of the gauge clamp opening.
I'd make them but it isn't worth the money. Wanna pay $100 for one? (J/K) I make every bracket and gadget for my car I can.
