hey now that scheme is under kenchan copyright.
What can I say... I'm a procrastinator I've got the piece to make it, but I was originally looking at replacing the shift boot and put it off. Also, there's not really a gap because the desert eagle shift knob is so tall and I have it screwed down pretty much all the way. I'm ok with how it looks now, but I'll probably do it on whim sometime down the road when I want a little change. I've got the DIY printed out and organized in a binder

light color wheels... (never mind my camera bag in the background. )

I like the nismo wheels and I'm usually a fan of darker wheels. I think the difference in the lighting in the two pictures is throwing me off a little - I want to see the darker wheels in a little more light.

I really don't think it was that big of a fiasco. Yea, it was irritating that he thought the original black backing would be acceptable, but he found a solution and provided a free replacement to those who needed it. I'm inclined to give a forum sponsor a little more leniency, and I understand that stuff happens, especially when its a new products being released to the masses

I"m about to order a set but he's going to leave the backing white so I can paint it, and not attach it to the emblem so I can send the emblems off to get black chrome finish.

With regard to just the Z badge emblems, if Simota says the emblems are quality I'm inclined to believe him. I'm not sure they've got anything else I really want. Do you have specific experience with poor quality from them before? Either way, I'm sure you have your reasons
