I like the shape but not the chrome... funny though isn't the IS300 a chrome shifter??
Not bad but for some reason without any metal parts around the interior it doesn't blend very well.
I applaud u changing the shifter though... I hate the stock one.

For a **** try many an aftermarket solution. I have a MOMO and it's nice.

And I know the stock shifter is ugly, but this is ugly AND out of place. This shifter is worthy of nothing more than a shining place in a flight simulator. The shape is just horrendous. I had a nicer joystick on my Commodore 64 that I'd rather see in my car than that clusterfcuk of shapes.

And yes, the IS3 **** is chrome but it's the classic round ball. Not a origami chrome.

The Levoc shifter is a little more tolerable than the Razo one, IMHO. But I still am not impressed by that one either, that's why I haven't bought a new one. The only other option is to relocate the O/D button, someone on CL has done that. I'm not sure which direction to go yet, so I've done nothing so far.

No...You'll need the whole new gearbox and gated shifter conversion..That costs over 2k..

Pretty soon, I'm gonna make my own. It can't be that hard to take a piece of wood, whittle it into a **** shape, then drill out a hole for the shaft. Maybe next weekend.
