I dunno. I just got the new Victoria British catelog in the mail yesterday, I should check it out.

I checked corksport, but they only have a picture of the **** too. It looks pretty nice, I just want to see what it looks like in the car!

I don't see it looking right with only the **** being wood. If some more of the trim were wooden too then it might be pretty nice.

Wood has its place in certain cars, like a Jaguar or Mercedes or Range Rover, but an FD? Ugh!

Well, I don't think it would be THAT ugly, but I am interested in seeing how it looks.

It would look good but not alone. You would need some more wooden interior pieces.

I don't understand how you jump from a wooden shift **** to spinner wheels and airbags, but ok.

This is where I'm coming from. I grew up around old British roadsters, and my dad still has a 66 E-Type, so the wooden **** kind of stirred that passion, but I'm hesitant to get it without seeing what it would look like in the car.

Well after doing some very crappy photoshop work with the pic above and a pic of my interior, I've decided against the wood ****. I'm gonna go with the CF Mazdaspeed **** I think since the leather on mine is really coming off now, my right hand is sticky and black after driving the car!

The Porsche Carrera GT has a plain wood ****, so thats old school?

Most of the current ***** are simply bling bling ricey, and our FDs are old school!

Leather MazdaSpeed is the best you will find honestly. Perfect fit. Perfect feel. A little pricey though.

Does the MS CF **** have the same weight and fit as the leather ****? And does anyone know where I could get a leather **** with red stitching? Might as well look into that since it's apparent that I'm gonna have to spend a bit of money to get what I want...
