Good morning all,

I am working with an interior company about making a fantastic custom shift boot for my car. This company does not currently make them and it is going to be custom fit. It will be made from supple Italian leather. I am working on the pricing, but who would be interested in these if I had him make multiple units for me? Once I guage interest, I will let you know the price points.

Here are a couple, one more to follow. In second pic, theirs is the one on the right that replaced a factory boot.

I'd probably be interested but would want the threat to be black & not stand out like those. This would just be an updated one of the stock one correct. Not one that looks totally different?

Good morning again. With black leather/black stitching, the price will be $55.00 shipped. I will make sure that it fits a rennshift. The price is assuming at least 10 units. There are additional discounts for more units purchased. Please let me know what you think on that price, as I am looking for a good deal also. MOMO shift boots go from $20 (vinyl) to over $100 (leather), so I guess a custom fit boot for $55.00 is in the ballpark.

So far I am at 4, this will not fly unless it it 10 units, so please let me know if you are in, and if not I will put this to bed. Thanks.
