When i ordered, i thought it was black stitching, but when i saw it, i liked it and it looks pretty good in my car. I was very happy to see the final result.

Hey, are the people at rotorhead.ca out of town or something?

I ordered a strut tower brace and they have not answered all of my emails or provided tracking information, is that normal?

Not a short shifter????? W0W! Thats very impressive, the stock shifter is pretty high, Im hoping to find a shift **** where the threads are low so it gives it that short shifter look and feel just like yours but im not paying 90 bucks for a shift **** I seen many on ebay that looks nice like yours for about 20, i might try those out. Thanks.

Any short aftermarket **** will knock a good one or two inches out of the height of the shifter.
