he also said that's it, no more kits, once they sell out they won't order any more due to the "wait" and bla, bla......bla.......so thats it......were all screwed........

feels good huh?.........
Yeah, dude that is fed UP!!.............I didn't think much of it sitting in the box, but once it was installed I started to notice it, the after seeing ZUlaters, mine looks like totally different. Would work well with a pewter or gold theme I guess. It really isn't as evident in person.


DAMN it always happens to me

i was really thinking about getting the kit. so there are no more good (sliver,clear) kits? i can use a manual or auto kit because i have a custom console and didnt plan to use that piece. i will sell it.

blu beast- so they said no more huh that sucks! just when you guys convince me w/ your pics.

actually they have a few more kits in 6 speeds.....the last 2 auto kits are parted out so they aren't complete.......

the 6 speed kits are silver/clear......and on sale for $395 I think....

spoke to rksport today,one thing has not change their customer service sucks! they said all they had was the gold colored kits auto or manual. they also said they had not discontinued the kit but, would not be ordering more till those were sold. i had to speak to four people to get i straight response! if zulaters kit came sliver than iam thinking they are just saying all of them are gold so they dont have to deal with any problems if someone gets a bad one. oh well iam very let down. i was looking forward to getting the kit,but i wont spend 400$ chancing it.

I'm hoping that if enough Firebird/TA owners show enough interest we can convince them to offer us a set

I started another thread about it if you wanna post in it

To the original poster, various problems notwithstanding, I LOVE the way this kit looks and reeeeeeeeeeeeeeally want one for each of my cars

Thanks, I love it!........I just wish they would have given me a Silvery colored center console instead of the Green/Gold one, then I'd be a happy camper....

Blu - What'd you do for a shifter? I have an Ichiban shifter... red shaft, chrome button, with a CF insert... I think something like that would perfect your CF interior. I'll get a pic of it sometime.

Stock shifter here........pics would be nice, yes!.......



ls1/srt.......its okay to feel funny, kinda like being over/under dressed at a social event I'm thinking......for me it was a must after seeing it on Steves car, and getting rid of the bland "plastic" look that GM loves to sell us was just a added bonus......when the light from the T-tops hits it just right, it'll take your mind off of traffic any day.....
