Icon4 Sickest weighted shift **** for the 8th gen civic...

So I came across these pics of a SICK setup and I know that the Shift **** is made by TWM Performance, but I was wondering where I could get the boot.





I just picked up the Shift **** from TWM and they just opened up a Group Buy...FUUUUUUU lol. Anyways if anyone wants to pick it up, their hosting a Group Buy on 8thGen and you can get it for $100...weighs like 500grams

Anyways, if someone can help me out with the Boot setup, it would be great.thanks

I like my T182R Ti **** from T1R. Weighs 182g hence the name.

i would think the blue would chip eventually. I have always wanted the arc **** like that but they all look bad after awhile.

I agree. Apparently TWM Shift ***** are guaranteed for life...so if ever it fades or chips, they'll replace it free of charge.

I knew that the blue might eventually fade. But I'm not worried as the blue and red stitching don't clash much anyways. :p

TWM now has a Group Buy going on their Short Shifter Stage 2 Full Replacement and the shift ****...Think I'm gonna take advantage of it to pick up up the Gun Metal M1 Abrams with the shifter and save 15% on all of it.

I picked up a TWM shift **** for my boyfriend's birthday (first modification to his Si). He loves it already, even though he didn't get around to putting it on last night.

As far as the performance finish, I don't know if it will stand up to the sandpaper like in the YouTube video, but we looked away for one second and suddenly his toddler nephew had the shift ****. He tossed it, like a kid would throw a bowling ball. *THUNK* And it rolled across the 100 year old hardwood floor.

We picked it up... Not a scratch, not a ding. It looks as good as it did when it was first removed from the bubble wrap.

Awesome. Mine's had a couple of incidences too, and still looks like the day I unwrapped it

I like my Skunk2 ****. Mostly because I got it for free, I wouldn't pay for one.
