Looks good. I like the alcantara and the blue thread, but I think the stitching looks a little big. Redlinegoods (same as Polaks) have a tighter stitch pattern which I think looks a bit better, but that's just my opinion. Here's mine:

I like that shift **** better too...lol. I like how the boot I have though is more customizable and you can get it in alcantera. It is really up to the person who buys it.

Is Polak's black leather/black stitch the same as this and do you have a short shifter installed in this pic?

Yes, Polak is a reseller for Redlinegoods, so the black/black is the same. No short shifter though, just stock, although if you go through Redlinegoods' site they do have more options, such as specifying a short shifter and how much shorter you would like your boot. They also have many colors (not pink though, sorry) and different materials such as alcantara and carbon fiber look vinyl as well as different stitch options such as double and tripple stitch. I'm not sure how much BigRed's ran him, but mine was around $45.

Pretty much looks like the factory shift boot if you ask me.

Got mine from ShiftStyle on Friday, installed over the weekend. Black Alcantra with Grey stitching. It's got a nice feel to the touch and classes it up a bit IMO.

I chose black/black because I wanted it to look "factory" and I have no other colors in my interior. Here's a comparison between the OEM vinyl boot and leather one:

well, while its been bumped anyone who owns the ShiftStyle care to give an update on the condition of the alcantara material?
Mine is only about a year old(black synthetic alcantara) and its already fading to a rusty brownish black...
