That abrams shifter looks great, but a little out of my price range. I'll be saving up for new gears and a tloc towards the end of summer so I would prefer most of that money going towards that rather than a shift ****. I'd say my ceiling is about 60-70 smackers. I'm just looking for a nicely made and somewhat attractive shift **** that will hold up to my daily use a little better than the stock one haha. So far, I'm leaning towards the grabberpony.

I really like my shifter area. I have an MGW shifter, a leather boot from redlinegoods (it was easy to install), and a shifter ball(large one). When you order a shifter ball make sure its the size you want. The stock ones are too small...........I got a cue ball size one and love it. Most places do not say weather the ball is small or large so you have to ask.
I guess you can say I prefer larger *****!

I went with a custom Grabberpony ****. It came out just as I hoped. Yeah it's a little expensive but...

^^ That looks very nice.
When I spring for a new shift **** I'll probably go for one from there.

Thanks for the props. If you can dream it... Grabberpony can create it.

Anyone seen those ***** they made for Termies a while back?
It said "f#cking fast" instead of 6 on the grid pattern...
I thought it was hilarious and I'd like to find one for my old Cougar since I'll upgrade it to 6spd.
Sounds familiar. I believe it was svtperformance who used to make them.

LOL @ the FF ****..

i'd show mine up here, but you can't get one...

one-off handmade cast aluminum from an artist <HAM> in LA.. (sounds spiffy don't it) lol

and i doubt you're a skull-freak like me anyways..

and if i didn't have this one, i'd be using the Hurst one that came with my Short-throw shifter.. or an 8 ball.. or one of those silly von-dutch ones..

Yea, I'm not too big of a fan of grabbing on to the representative of a human skull to work the transmission, even though I have to admit that it works well with your set up! It's looking like I'll be grabbing a vista blue custom **** from grabberpony.com once I catch a break from life and have the time to start looking at mods again. They just look sharp!
