I was kinda sick for the past 3 days, so I had nothing better to do than to rip apart my OEM shift boot and try to go for the arcade racing game machine look (Had another idea of making a "H" shift gate for the 5-speed before, but I guess it didn't work out due to the lack of equipment).

I'm using plastics from DVD boxes this time, just to experiment with it... Once I get my hand on some carbon fiber or even fake carbon fiber stickers, I will try to apply it to give it an OEM look (compare with the CF dash trim). I know it looks crappy now, but there will definitely be another version soon!

So yes, I'm here to show and shine this ghetto ricey mod. Comments and ESPECIALLY suggestions are greatly appreciated, Cheers~

Was gonna use this one to put the shifter through, but it looked WAY too ghetto~

Mahalo~

 

Don't like it look's too ghetto out try something else my .02

 

.5/10

Seriously, it's an eye soar. I don't know why you would want to wreck the smoothness of your interior.

 

Actually if you look around, I saw some guy did it like a Ferrari and look real nice.

 

At least it's a 5 out of 10, LOL..... thx for the input anyway, I'll try to find ways to improve~

As for the traditional OEM leather shift boot style, I'm not going back, for sure~

 

HA?!??!? REALLY??!? WHERE?!? IN EVOM???
But is it for the GSR? cuz I know OEM Lambo shift gates can fit the MR 6-speed with only minor retro fitting~

Got link? Pictures? I'll look for it as well, thx for the suggestion~

 

^^ Sorry to break the news, but it looks like that was a .5/10 aka "point 5"/10 aka 5%. Unfortunately I agree...sorry.

 

ya, it's def a .5 not a 5.

 

Oops, LOL.... missed the "point".... it's all good, I KNEW that it looks like crap(as it was stated on the post, lol...), I was just hoping for suggestions to improve this mod~

thx for the input though, let me know if you have any suggestions!

 

I don't think the shifter moves enough at the console height to have the Ferrari style gate.

 

DAMN...... LOL, I better watch what I post in the future, .5 is like worse than crap~ what a shame~

 

I agree, and I am sure of it, not on the 5-speed GSR but surely on the 6-speed MR.

 

Cool!

 

The idea is cool, but the fact that it's clear and the holes cut aren't very good makes it look ehhh.

 

i prefer the smoothness of the stock shift boot... just my .02, nice effort and being bored
