That shift plate looks gorgeous, wish I could do that without going to a pro chromer. One advantage of having a '99, I guess!

NO NO NO!!! the 99 shift plate was painted silver on top of the chrome. So, that's why you can do that... won't work with the 00 and later model years.

One of the reason why I would guess is that the shift plate was made in the very similar process as the Japanese spec shift plate back in 99. The only difference is they have reverse pattern.

Later on the TL got 5spd tranny, so they build the plate with a different process while the Japanese still use the same shift plate so, they have no D4 or D3 I think..
