haha good point.. kinda strange looking to me. it kinda makes the shiftboot/shiftknob look even more like a boxing glove/arm than before... oh well. how does it feel?

i think it might look better if you get another shift ****. Maybe the skunk2 or the base RSX one...

While the shifter in the ep3 is functional, I don't think there is any way to make it attractive. It either looks like a bent nail, a pen!s or a boxing glove depending upon what you do to it.
