The Corvette **** looks pretty good:

That digital **** looks pretty pointless. If your hand is on the **** your not going to see the digital display anyway.

The Corvette one is nice, but I really don't like the shiney MBA ones much. I'm not sure if there are many other options out there for a leather wrapped one.

MGW makes a few nice shift ***** too. Check them out.

I have one from an 03 Cobra. I used a short stick made for a mustang on my pro-50 so it would fit

I love my DW Motorsports pistol grip, but its pretty pricey.
If you want, I have a black MBA with the bird engraved I'm trying to sell. I'd use it, but I have a Camaro.

The Corvette one is nice, however...I just took the stock shifter off my brother's Camaro, took off the leather & stitching, and I've used it on my Trans Am ever since. Black, solid, plasticy, but is just right for me.

Since you mentioned leather, I would say either the C6 **** or the SLP has a good feel to it.

That gaslock, is very tuner.

I had a SLP(Like above) on mine before i tore the car apart.

I didnt really like how rough the stitching is.

So i will be switching to a carbon fiber C6Z to match my CF interior.

My brother had the same one as mongooSSe. It had a really good feel to it, but I just like the look of my laser engraved shift ****

Anyone know where to get a black plastic Hurst **** with just the "H" symbol on it, or at least just the Hurst name in color? I have the T-Handle right now and I'm tired of it. If someone has one and want to trade PM me.
