PWJDM- here's mine. :D

i used a plastic spacer i had in my parts bin to raise the boot. :)

i had one issue which you might be able to revise. the decorative stripe had very tiny burrs on mine and it was enough to shred my suede glove a little bit during the test drive.

later that night i took my file (and my time not to scratch the brushed area) and smoothed it out.

the weight and size imho is very good. :tup: the mt.fuji look on the boot didnt really look too bad in person so i just left it.

^^^ That looks quite nice, Mr. Kenchan. I look forward to actually trying mine when I get back home from my folks' house here in Long Beach.

Question, though, Suede glove? Nice. :tup:

I was thinking recently about getting a pair of driving gloves so I don't scratch the finish of my new knob, but felt that it might perhaps be a bit too ostentatious! :tup:

Hahaha. It gets cold here, thus the gloves. In the summer unless I'm sweating in a car with no a/c I don't wear gloves. :D. The gloves makes the steering consistent.

Hmm, pics pwease? :pics:

Does the shift ring slip on at all, or does it just not slip down far enough to get the knob threaded?

TerribleONE 12-27-2011 11:04 PM

I installed the knob without the ring for now I'll snap some pictures tomorrow. It does slip over however not far enough to start threading the knob on

happytheman 12-27-2011 11:11 PM

Man that's weird. Sound like a possible manufacturing issue. :(

TerribleONE 12-27-2011 11:26 PM

Thats what I am guessing since it is pretty damn close.. Hopefully they will take care of it..

Did you remove the aluminum spacer that was under the stock shift knob?

happytheman 12-28-2011 06:23 AM

I didn't have to remove my aluminum spacer. Everything slid together with ease and tightened down perfectly, just like it was waiting to come home! :)
