I've done two, actually. One a little different than something you did, and one you don't even know about.

thats something I've been wanting for a while, just not with the read, since I desided against the black/red theme.

The cheapest I've found was GMPD.

other then the colour, it hte leather and different?

GMPD won't ship/sell to Canadians, I would need a middle man, and buying it from here would be nuts!, the Canadian mark up on parts can be upward of 100-150% !


example, I had Andrew get me some 2002+ SSEi badges, from him it cost me $12each to get them here, it would have been $44+tax each, my cost!

The red portion has reverse dimples. I don't know if the black one is the same way.

They should just sell the leather portion, but they don't. You have to remove it from the knob to remove the knob itself from the shift pole and they are completely swappable.

Ok, we NEED pics of both, PLEASE. I love oogling over the G8's on here, since I'm a teenager, and can't afford one.

It sucks that the gauges are metric, LOL.

Yeah, a little. These are only availble stock in places that use metric. I'm used to coverting though from being an engineer, so I barely have to think about it.
