Looking good.

PS: The shift boot has been pushed down, it's meant to sit like this:



There's a bit of stiff felt inside the boot that holds it in position.

even though the shifter is not bad. It's not a Miata or 300zx, but not as bad as some of the comments

Subjective. if you like it, enjoy it. I found it to be very clunky and long. As long as you like it, screw it enjoy that bad boy.

what are your plans for it? Only thing I can notice that's bad is the oxidation on headlights and fogs, but thats little issues that can be fixed over time.
