you can get the nardi e-brake handle, either the aluminum with leather handle or the all aluminum handle like this one...

may be a dumb question, but where the heck do u find this thing for sale online? im having a rough time finding one for the z

or is this just a "universal" ebrake that will "kinda fit"?



ninja edit: can't find any write ups for even getting the stock on off

this handbrake had to be custom fitted to our cars handbrake shaft.... most handbrakes are to small to even accommodate the size of the shaft of our cars.... the way i achieved this look was that i bought a nrg hand brake and machined the hole to fit our shafts... while doing so it actually made holes on the side of the handbrake and thats why i sent it to tony to wrap in kevlar

its just a universal NRG hand brake that he machined the center out of. he states that he drilled to much and cut thru to the outside, so he sent it to tony at cf element to wrap. its a frankenstein knob that came out amazingly. if u have the machine skills, make it happen
