Shift Knobs & Shift Boots

[‹^› ‹(•¿•)› ‹^›]

I am trying to get an idea of which shift Knob & boot I should buy. I want it to be simple yet stlyish and comfy. I would like the one used on the Fast & Furious Eclipse, but I can never get a good Look at the brand. thanks Post some pics..please :wave:

go with a custom boot... i went to a local sewing school thing... i paid them 10 bucks and they made me a blue and white vinyl shift boot.. 4 pannels with white pipes at the stiches... it looks real good, but i dont wanna install it till i finish my ghetto interior

i made a white vinyl one myself, just ripped apart the old pattern, cut the same size and sewed it back together... turned out really good and only costs a couple bucks.

the civic type-r knob is sweet.

I know not many people are fans of the T-handle, but trust me they're VERY nice and easy to handle. The boot if from an Audi.

HorsepowerFreaks (http://www.horsepowerfreaks.com) has a lot of good stuff. I can get you good deals off their website if you find anything you want/need.

The Razo is ok, i just don't like the indentation in the top. But not bad.

tell me which one you want and i'll tell you how much. usually somwhere around 25% off sale price (depending on the item).

*EDIT* hey Matt, i'm also having some custom billet shift knobs made specially for my business. They're gonna resemble a large drill chuck. They're gonna come either polished or non. My friend is gonna make them, im just having a little trouble getting the money together to have a batch made. They'll cost around $20 bucks + s/h.

That would look pretty sick with a dark blue boot.

they come in leather, aluminum (show) and carbon fiber.

[Hash_man_Se_i]

My friend just got this shift knob, and I think its awesome. It feels so good to use as well. And for a boot, I would say get a good quality momo or something, but if u want cheap then make ur own.... or... dare I say.... APC

Alot of good stuff and ideas here.. Well whatever I choose will look good with my GS-R Short Shifter!! aww can't wait!

[ghost_ny]

Too many to chose from. I need some too

[markmdz89hatch]

Mikey Mike, show me what you want for the shift boot, and I'll make one. I've been making a few here and there and they're coming out pretty good. Just tell me what color, and what kind of design you want. There's a bunch of possibilities, just give me an idea of what you want.

....ps..if you want one, hit me up on the cell.

[iloveJDMblackrims69]

hey matt... go to walmart or somethin and pick you up a copy of scc magazine... they have all kinds of style shift knobs..

[89 Accords Rock]

I made my own boot. Red and black leather, and then i went out and bought a shifter straight from honda. ones for the 03 civic si, all i had to do was use my tap and die set and re-tap the short shifter also for a civic and the inside of the shift knob. It looks real damn sharp and its soo comfortable. all biliet aluminum

[MrBen]

I have the shift boot and knob off a mid 90's Integra. No pics of it, but it looks and feels really nice.

[Dibbs]

If you send me a boot that you think will look good w/ a gs-r short shifter, I will duplicate it for you for materials and shipping costs. I'm not sure about your color scheme but I think the Type-R setup w/ the black leather(or vinyl) with the red thread woulf look badass. Also, I've got a lot of remnant materials in various colors, so if we could work on a color you would like that I have, we could do this thing for next to nothing.

Lemme know if you're interested.
