Wanted to do this for a while now. Finally got around to it today. Rainy days are good for something after all. I used the Duplicolor "vic red" lil brush end, filled the areas and wiped it off with a paper towel and nail polish remover. Thought it came out pretty good, the short reverse dot was the hardest to get. Pics were hard to take, looks way better in person.

Enjoy!

 

Looks good Chris!

That should add about 5whp on Saturday.

 

COPY CAT!!!!!!! lol jk man. looks good

 

^ nice man! what did you use for yours?

 

i don't remember the brand. but i just sanded it down. used gloss black as the base, sprayed it all. and then used a 5bristle brush to do the inside. and just rubbed it down with my thumb to get tthe white off of the black.

 

that looks nice i want to change my shifter i hate the stock ones on the ls

 

It actually looks way better now that it has completely dried. But its too dark to take a good pic. I'm kinda thinking it would be cool to fill it with a clear coat so its flush with the top of the silver part. We shall see

 

it looks good! It adds that extra little custom look haha i wanna do mine now

 

x2...

 

i just gotta find the green to match mine lol

lol jk

 

ha, copy cat!!! that was the first mod i did to my car when I bought it. The shifter was missing something. click on my name and then threads started by me and then look for my pic thread. I did that shiz 3 months ago!

I used red nail polish and left the shifter on when I did it. Rubbed my thumb over the top and used my nail to remove the remaining nail polish!

 

still beat ya

 

i think im gonna have to copy this mod lol but with blue

did u take it off or wat? and re glue it

 

its too late to explain. i'll do it in the morning if someone hasn't by then already

 

i guess that will be ok.......

 

ust get a super small flathead screwdriver and start prying from the very top, and then the bottom left and right corners. in like a peace sign pattern

it comes off easily, but you have to be sure to bring it up vertically or it'll snap the clips. i broke on off. and two seems to be barely enough

 

so it clips on not glue?

 

well. its actually two pieces. theres the top part, which has the engraved shift pattern, which is actually metal thats already painted. and that clips on to a plastic base, which clips on to the main shift knob body. look in my picture. the area that has the shift pattern on it is area1. the ring outside area1, you can see in the top right its chipped a little bit, will be area2, and area3 is the main shift knob, insert the flathead inbetween area2 and 3

nvm look at his pictures. the first two pictures is what you're gonna pry off of the main shift knob

 

i got this habit of rubbing my thumb over the shifter and finally one day that piece broke off i should've painted it than but i didn't snap to it. Now i gotta take it off and paint it

 

alright thanks

 

thats some nice work
