Not a fan of the Pokeball shift ****, but I get why you rock it. The CF trim looks really good though, not like the crappy overlay kits they sell on eBay. How long did it take you to do everything? Any special tools required? Been thinking about doing this myself..

What kind of seats do you have? Looks like suede..

Appreciate the honesty! I got a roll of the wrap on eBay and cut it accordingly to each trim piece. It took my a few hours.. haha but I didn't get the 3M vinyl. I got the vinyl from the seller "specklevinylsolutions". It took me a while because i had some air bubbles, I've heard the 3M has some sort of air channels that prevent/reduce bubbles. Otherwise it's not too hard! I used a rubber squeegee, heat gun (you could probably use a hair dryer though), a screw driver for unscrewing some of the trim pieces. I also have some plastic trim removing tools at home but a flat head screw driver would do, just wrap the head with tape and be careful not to scratch/dent the trim pieces. And yes the seats are suede and leather, they're the seats that come with the F-sport trim

i dont know if you consider it "aftermarket" but i switched from my solid shift **** to the perforated leather shift **** you can get on Sewell. my stock one was all faded and needed a replacement

the perforated one reminds me of the one that comes in the F

F-Sport here. Really you just have to find a **** with the right threading. Threading is M8 x 1.25 if I searched correctly.

Personally I liked my old ARC titanium **** on my IS300. They're discontinued. You can find some reps. The odd one pictured is by MXP.
