T1R Shift knob & shift boot pics

I got these in yesterday and put them in last night, this is the first time i had free to take pics when it wasn't dark out





The last pic was with the flash on and it makes the color look like it doesn't match very well but it does


I would recommend these 2 products to anyone who wants to get a new shift knob & boot

i like the shift boot (bought a leather one myself), but the shift knob looks cheap. i'd stick with ARC or Sparco, that just looks like a christmas tree ornament

This style of burn on titanium shift knobs is all the rage in Japan right now. J's Racing, ARC, etc. all have this style available in Japan now. It doesn't come in pictures that great due to the glossiness, but in person, it really looks awesome.

Nice, it looks good man.

dD Spikey,

Do you have a red stiched boot in stock? I want to place an order.

That would match very well with my Bride Stradias.

im not sure what they are called ask frank at Xtremeboost what they are called, he ordered them and installed them for me.

the swivel side 2 side and front to back, so you can mount them anywhere and movie them to where you want them and they stay there.
