I'm not sure, but I think 750 Faces is still selling parts.

Also read Steve-o's thread on gauge restoration, there are a few re-builders and parts sources in that thread, plus it is a current thread ( Feb 2024).

I'm surprised anyone is making those at all.

Are your jewels missing or just faded?
The ones on my panel were faded.
I replaced the bulbs in my panel with colored LED's.
The colors are nice and bright now when the bulbs are lit.

Well then for that obviously you would need new jewels. 
I doubt those jewels were available when I rebuilt my bike.

The ones I have aren’t new but they are original Honda. If you want new you are going to have to spend big for them with Yamiya or Webbike etc…

 FB-stuff.com   https://www.fb-stuff.com/  I see them in the pictures, not in the parts list, they are behind the chain guard.

[bert96]

I don't know if its me but i can't find them on fb-stuff !?

Bert

[Don R]

 They are in the photos, not the parts list. Look for the chain guard, they are behind it. You may need to ask who he is making them for and get them there.

Recall the trick for restoring plastics after polishing out any light scratches you clean them coat them with Future Acryllic Floor finish with .  and they should dry with high gloss.

When it needs refreshed you can clean it well with high purity alcohol and breaks out an airbrush again to give them another coat…

Alternatively, shoot a coat of urethane clear and you have a more permanent  solution that is much better and more UV stable…
SprayMax gloss urethane
Look on repaintsupply.com it has a shelf life and must use can completely within 24 hours a of activation, ideally fart less than 24 hours!!

Gather up several things and them all prepped and apply 2 coats. 

YOU MUST WEAR PROTECTIVE GEAR Painting w/Urethane, not doing so can have Lethal or Crippling Results!!!!!!!

Sorry forgot about that,  here is a good guide and replacement product that works well….
Gives you the ins and outs on handling it as airbrushing or spraying the replacement is what is important…

I happened across one online that looked like it had a fairly nice decal for $20 shipped so I grabbed it. I have not tried cleaning it up any yet. Figure I will carefully mask and re paint it. My K2 OEM has faded to brown...easy to forget that the decal was not brown wood grain originally. I have heard that the repro decals do not have the proper embossed look.



Gave it a quick scrub with a toothbrush and dawn dish soap, this picture makes it look a lot worse than at arms length LOL.



The complete Yamiya part looks OK really but that decal just does not POP like a true OEM does :-)
