Well, I got my boot in tonight. It takes a bit of effort to get it installed the way you want it because the material is thicker, but this an excellent quality product. I highly recommend this product to anybody. You'll be very happy with their boots. Heres a sample. I'll take some better pics tomorrow.

That looks pretty sweet... thinking about suede... might be able to flex a little more than the leather. Hey thoughtless... do you notice any difference in your shifting (resistance or anything) with the new boot. That would be my only worry about the thicker material

says you can contact them and they'll try and get the color you want.

boot looks pretty good. how was it installing it? its it just like a 'plug and play' or do you have to modify anything? i've been interested in getting a new boot, i love the look of the black leather with red threading.

Black with red stitching and a silver stripe, or gray/white. That would look very nice!

Yea, thanks, I like the design of your seat covers. I wouldn't mind them myself if they fit snug. Where did you get them? Also, I'm thinking about possibly painting the "CF lookin" dash trim to go with the black/silver theme. What do you think?

Black with a red stitching, but make the stitching double or triple so the color shows better and add a silver stripe.

Yea, it was pretty simple to install. It takes a lil bit more effort with the thicker material, but it takes no time to get it to fit the way you want it. Good color choice.

Does it come with the little plastic piece around the bottom of the boot? Or do you need to reuse that part of the stock piece?
