booty, but only for those with sticks

Mods, please don't move this since about 3% of this board's traffic is 1st gen people... but if you do, i'll understand.



Shift Booty
Booty foe yo stick! Made from gray matte vinyl or high quality leather (a rough, well wearing, leather... think BMW instead of Lexus & you got it) with your choice of colored stitching. The bottom of the boot is an exact fit for your Subaru/Acura and the top is an exact fit for your MOMO or OEM shift knob, depending on which you have!


Closeup of black leather Shift Booty with WR Blue stitching for stock Impreza shift knobs. Skiing penguin sold seperately.



The above boot installed in my WRX.



Gray matte vinyl Shift Booty with delete stitching for MOMO knobs. Shown installed in a '97 2.2CL.


Options:
Fitment
-'02+ Subaru Impreza
-'97-'99 Acura 2.2CL/2.3CL
-'94-'97 Honda Accord
(This product is only for cars equipped with a manual transmission)

Material
-Matte gray vinyl ($25 shipped to your door)
-Black leather ($35 shipped to your door)

Knob Fitment
-Subaru OEM (please recycle the snap on collar from the OEM boot)
-Acura/Honda OEM
-MOMO (tucks into the MOMO collar)

Stitch Color
-Aspen White
-Bling Bling Platinum
-WR Blue
-MY99-01 2.5RS Shift Knob Red
-Sedona Red
-Plain Old Black
-Faded Yellow
-Forest Green
-delete stitching (deduct $10)

Boots that fit '98-'01 Subaru 2.5RS and Legacy models are coming soon! (As soon as someone lets me borrow their car to check for fitment )

Want one? Let me know & I'll have the first batch made up.

I have all the supplies in hand and I just need to give my people the word as to what to make. Let's say I'll have them ready by early March?

Hey RidinLow, I just installed my shift knob...its a wannabe Integra TypeR/s2000 knob, aluminum. I haven't replaced the boot (haven't even taken off the chrome collar), so it looks like ass. I need to get a boot that will fit up to the beginning of the knob...are you still making those booty's? I like those black ones with the blue stitching, its a nice touch. How much, and could you give me a little info about installing the boot so that it fits right on the knob?

ATL, the prices are listed above.

TT, my WRX clutch died at 12k mi, but I got it warranteed. I have a manual boost controller for more boost, a Field SFC and EGT & boost gauges for tuning, a 3" turboback, Kartboy short shifter, OZ Superleggeras, sway bar, etc. My service manager autocrosses with me, so that helps (even though he's seen me launch that car hard at least a dozen times).

LoL, RidinLow I just noticed that now. Oh well, at least no one is bitching at me for not using the search function. Its fun to dig up some of these old posts. Well, I read someone got their old shift boot to work by doing some ghetto ass stuff with electrical tape. I might try that before I order one of your fancy-schmancy booty's. I'll let you know either way, cause they do look mad nice.

Faker!!!, thats cool though, all of the 3.0's and 3.2's wish they could force it into second at 7 rpms like us 5 speeders!

The wrx sounds like a fast car. I drove my friends tsi talon, and was scared to launch that beast at like 2-5, the tranny has been replaced once and rebuilt twice! It is a nice car though, i kind of go for the awd T cars, somethin about puttin 5 car lengths on that 5.0 off the line just makes me tingle inside.

Hehe, thanks... not bad for $10 (for the 2 Autometer gauge cups) and some double sided tape.
