I am in the process of replacing my shift boot and wanted to know if anyone had any recommendations as to which one I should pick up. I am looking for one thats is simular to the Corvette shift boots or some of the other ones that have some excess material rather then the exact length so it doesnt look to tight on there.
Thanks, -Cody

Click on the link on my sig so you go to my wiki page, and check out the one I made. It'll cost you $5 and you can make it however you like. EDIt: Meh, I feel generous today, here is the pic. Take your old onen out, undo the sowing and trace the parts onto what evr material you are using. Cut 'em out and sow them back together. Voila!

Also, I got a carbon fiber shift boot for like $10-15 shipped. There's nothing telling you this in the package, but spray it with hair spray if you get it, to keep it from fraying on the edge where you shift from 1st->2nd.

i believe he meant real C/F becuase the one i had frayed as well as he described. i dont know, i didnt like the look anyways so im glad it frayed and got a new one just plain black leather boot now.
