Top Row from left to right are: Aluminum Machined Finish, Aluminum Brushed finish (Matches OEM Interior Trim), and Aluminum Polished finish

Bottom Row from left to right are: Titanium Machined Finish, Titanium Polished finish, and Titanium Burnt finish

Engraving Sample

This engraving is not actually machined into the surface. Instead it is laser engraved on top of the surface. This option would be cheaper than an actual machine engraved finish due to ease of set-up for the laser compared to CNC machine. If interested, PM me for more details.

Also have Shift boots:

This is an awesome mod and I'm greatful for seeing it coming to the Z. Please don't be insulted by some ideas id like to throw at you. This is just some food for thought.... Mine's Racing had a wiring harness that reversed the shift on the stick for the 7at. So with the harness you downshift on a OEM upshift and vice-versa. It makes manual shifting feel more natural. It would be awesome if you made a package deal with the harness.
I see that the ball looks like a manual ball for real. Does it eliminate the shift lock? Or is it hidden in the leather?
I was thinking the ball looks nice but would you be able to make something with a more ergo design like a boxing glovish shaped shifter? That would look hot if done right.
Another kool idea would be to engrave the ball like pjdm, but make it more nissan oriented. I don't know if you legally could engrave FairladyZ but that would be smack killa... or even just the engraved shift pattern with the new wiring harness +,- symbols..

Just thoughts... take my post with a grain of salt if you don't like my ideas.

Since you seem to have experience modding the auto stick. Where is the button to move the stick out of park? Thanks.

I would die over a black chrome shift knob. Since I will either get black chrome rims or get my sport pkg wheels blk chrome plated.

**We are waiting on the last piece for the shift knob. We also have a CF boot option. We had an issue with the shift knob causing it not to fit correctly. We are hoping the updated part will arrive next week. We will also have a DIY install. **

I'm interested brother. The brushed aluminum is up my alley. I really like the flow on the shift boot that's on the 350z. What material is that?

This is the most exciting interior mod for the AT yet... I'm antsy!

Jamaica · 02-28-2012, 03:09 PM

Great news. Updated piece arrived today finally. If this works then we are good to go. This will be a shift boot and knob combo. Hopefully install on Wednesday

UNKNOWN_370 · 02-28-2012, 03:27 PM

Sounds awesome. Hope it fits like the carbon fiber 350pic... that's the perfect look in general
