Looks very cool--and original--but I agree with previous posts about the wood being out of place... Flat-out wierd in my opinion. Spend a couple hundred bucks and get your wood pieces carbon fibered to complete the other 70% of the theme you're going for. That would tie everything in!!

I do have an all leather black shift **** as well.. Perhaps I may have the wood airbrushed black.. That will result in more mods for this car

Thanks Nick.. I love the GS.. That is why it sleeps in the garage while the others sleep outside under car covers.. My only mod on the 335 is the new nav map update lol..

You can purchase them online C. The Acura NSX, Celica, Supra, MOMO, universal shift boots will fit fine. Mine is actually a TRD boot made for the Toyota Supra & Celica years 93-05.

There is c/f on the exterior of the car.. I may get the wood trim done in carbon fiber ala CarbonGS.

Looks pretty good. My only gripe is that it looks like there is a bit too much leather at the base of the shift ****. Other than that, good install and nice quality product.

Looks really good and gives the center console that clean touch. I'd like to do this mod myself but not sure it will flow with the Tan interior
