    idea for custom shift knobs everyone look!

    i saw this on a different site and i was thinking about making some.



    pool cue shift knobs!

    they are well weighted and gives a different look to the inside of your car!

    i just wanted to see who would like to have one?

    there are different styles too




    there are only 16 knobs to be sold. so if i can get 16 people interested in em i will make them and ship them out.

    hey be careful drilling these out, the pool ball material is some wierd stuff, never seen anything that drilled quite like it before. most pool balls are made by the same company,and it's a synthetic resin, they used to make them out of bakelite,which hasn't been used in years,not sure how well it would drill. oh the red one needs the bottom of an atari joystick to go with it.

    you could always just get a cue ball and spray it with candy paint or something. Then put the decal on, and then give it a few coats of clear coat.

    its up to you guys. i honestly like the idea of the numbers. if you guys want the custom painted ones then thats fine. but itll probably cost extra because i have to buy paint and clear coat.

    if i could find someone who could make the 3geez decal cheap enough id gladly do the custom balls and paint em and everything.
