You wouldn't perhaps have a pic of where you trimmed it do you? I noticed today it is going back easier though.

Okay, so I got the shifter installed today. Installed fine...however I'm not sure if there is something wrong with it or it was something I did. I re-used the shifter boot (the one that had the 7 7mm screws) and noticed it was a little tight fitting...no problem I figured. Well, the shifter doesn't like to center itself...it is alright from 1-3 but from 5-3 it doesn't like to center without a little help. I'm wondering if I need to modify the boot/get a new one? I did notice there was a little grease around the shifter, there was also all that red grease on the bottom (assuming that was supposed to be there). Any input appreciated, seems like a high quality shifter so I'm hoping it is only a install error.
EDIT: Took the thing apart and the shifter boot off, so it goes back to 3/4 from 5/6, albeit a lot more slowly than it does from 1/2 to 3/4. Not sure if this is a shifter problem or normal...but stock shifter went back quicker I believe...
EDIT 2: Alright so I re-installed, took the cover off, put everything back...goddamn it's loud. I'll try putting it back on...shifter does feel good though. Video of what I mean on the centering springs:

Btw Guitar does your ws6 have side splitters? Or is that the just the lighting off the stock side skirts? Looks good man.

Exact same issue with mine since day one. When you pull it out of 5/6/R it's like it needs a little tug" to completely center it under 3rd? That's the only thing I can actually nag about this shifter. It performs exquisitely though

Um, I don't think so. I had to look up side splitters, but afaik it is stock and probably just the reflection.
