- Muffler
- 4-light Corvette mod
- HID 6000k
- LED bulbs all around
- Iridium NGK plugs
- ATE slotted rotors and ceramic pads

no problem. Where'd you get that whole shifter setup?

All DIY boys! lol
I decided to try and make a gated shifter out of some spare aluminum plate I had.
Problem is the the plate sits so low on the shift stick, and the gears are spaced too close together, there isn't enough room to allow for individual slots for each gear.
I would have to build up the console around the shifter to a point where the stick has enough left and right play for individual slots.
That seemed like too much work (for now).
So this is what I came up with.
Just an aluminum plate cut to fit, wrapped if faux carbon fibre, and silicon'd in place.
Then I glued some stretchy material underneath to fill the space.
Quick trip to the hardware store for some copper, and the shaft is covered with shiny brass look
Feedback Please!
