Alright guys...I did it. Here are some pics:




I hate taking pics with flash as it takes depth out of a picture but my wifey broke my tripod so that's what I have for you right now. I fit very well and took a whole 15 minutes to install. I had to cut the original shift knob off because it was one piece with the boot and attached the lower portion of the boot to the new knob.

Matches pretty good to my silver trim if you ask me.

Thanks guys. It feels weird in my hands since I'm obviously used to the other one but I was kinda skeptical at first and now I'm loving it. Plus, it was a super easy mod.

Looks good with the rest of your interior. I have CF in the center, not sure how well it would blend it. Also, use some mod money for a nice camera and never worry about flash or tripod again in dark situations. Thanks for sharing.

Looking to purchase one of these:

Any issue with 'stretch' of the cut boot? Example, it goes into all gears fine without stretching the boot or pulling on it since it is now cut?

only in park does it slightly pull the leather tight but it works fine and doesn't tug or bind or anything. You can see it in the picture.
