haha i agree with the interior emblems. trust me; passengers won't be impressed with emblems and badges everywhere. unless it's a special edition or something, then 1 or 2 is cool, but any more and it gets obnoxious. it's like those imports with their manufacturer's badges and aftermarket emblems everywhere. it's rediculous.

And for a few bucks I'll run it up to the embroidery lady and we'll hook you up with some initials or an emblem on it, that'd be subtle and cool.

if you want a silver colored MBA shift ****, i'm selling one.

It looked pretty good against my black leather interior. A bit of a contrast to draw attention to the shifter, but not too much that it detracted from the rest of the interior.

A **** is a ****. How does it look cheesy, its the same color as the interior??? I bet if he posted a before pic the majority would probaly chose this one. I did the same thing and like it alot, + those aluminium ones get hot.

imagine the stock leather one with a lot of wear on top and black duct tape holding it to the stick so the leather wouldnt spin. Thats how it used to look. And no, I didnt do that in the first place, i just got this car a few weeks ago.

Sorry I dont have a heartbeat of america banner on my back windshield with bowtie emblems all over the interior. I think camaro in the front bumper/ rear bumper and on the radio is enough.

Man! I think it looks good, it looks stock, I do not understand why everyone is calling you cheap, to me its a honest and simple fix you did that improved the way it looked as it needed it.

I think some of the reason he is getting flamed is because he called it a "mod" and not a fix. I think it probably worked great as a fix, but not a good modification . . . .hope you guys know what im trying to say.


LOL at that guy getting butthurt over you not wanting a z28 emblem in your car.
