Default Trailblazer shifter revisited!
I was surprised that more people didn't jump all over the Trailblazer shifter when it began to come up as an option. Obviously, the brushed metal doesn't match our cars' interiors:

But it is such a better option for a shifter than stock.

I have had mine for a while now, but the car is still no where near ready for it. I decided what the hell and "fixed" it tonight. I've been meaning to do this since I got it. Boot is Landau Black SEM, top center is wrapped in adhesive vinyl.
Result...Beautiful:

Its an iphone, so the quality isn't great. I lost my wife's camera battery.

Here is bigger. Not really better though:

Is the brushed insert aluminum or just painted/dipped plastics?
