I'd definitely be interested... there doesn't seem to be a lot of options for the auto shift ***** on this car.

yes it is a round ball. you could always modify your shift gate to use a shift boot. the cost should be no more than whats already posted on their website. i'm not sure if they are gonna do any type of group buy pricing.

PS. depending on the shank length you may need to trim the shank a small amount. i think MT's have to do this as well but i could be wrong.

im confused..so this is a round titanium ball used primarily for MT cars right?..wouldnt it look really odd on a AT which has a long leather ****.. The shift boot i guess is a good idea, but why would you want your car to look like a MT if its not?I know where im from people would look at a setup like that and think I was retarded. I guess id have to see some pics or a photoshop first...i might be down to jump in the group buy if it looks ok, I know the **** itself looks amazing.

yup, i do.. yea i dont know..i guess it looks ok on the is300. Id still want to see it on the 8, seems out of place to me. Too bad they cant stretch it a little and make it a little longer down towards the console.

i am not sure of the price yet. that is MSRP, but it may be cheaper. if you're interested, PM me for the email to get a quote. i'm not sure if vendor rules will allow me to post a price for them.
