Question Has Anyone Ever Done This?

Has anyone ever tried to do this with our tl's? could probably make it look a little better, but this is to get the idea



I think it would look pretty cool to have a shift boot over the automatic shifter, its the cheapest way to go manual ha ha ,

I wanna get an opinion first before I give it a shot

What do you guys think?

i was simply making a point that you were obviously too ignorant to catch. it's like putting a Nike swoosh symbol on a pair of wal-mart kicks trying to make them something they're not was my point.

if you want everyone to agree with you, you're at the wrong place (for the most part) - "stop hatin" on people with differing views than yours. it's your car - do what you want, but asking for opinions and bitching up when those offered are different than what you wanted to hear is stupid.

You asked for opinions so you got them.. people are going to say what they mean here.

It works, just be careful when taking the paint off not to scratch the chrome when it starts showing.
