Default CNC Aluminum ****- Check it out

I found this **** on EBay,and might be of interest to you guys.

If you remember the '05 Mustang debut at the 2004 auto shows, you probably noticed that the MT **** was very different from the one actually offered in production. After some research, I found that the original **** that was featured at the auto-shows was replaced by a **** Ford received from a European supplier right before production.

The original **** design matches the Mustang's retro styling with cool font and ergonomic shape. There is a **** offered on EBay, which is machined out of aluminum, and has a clear-coat finish.

What do you guys think?

Metal ***** heat up enormously in the summertime. I prefer a resin cueball style, which is what I run now on my Tri-ax.

The **** looks cool as hell, but I gotta agree on this one. The Hurst shifter has exposed metal and gets very warm on long drives. I'd hate for the shifter ball to get that way too. OUCH!

[sm=smiley20.gif] I like it!!! I am planning to get one from Ford Racing!!!

Having already had a billet **** on my 04 and living in the hot Texas heat, I know how hot those ***** can get in the summer but they do cool down pretty quickly once the car is going and the A/C is running. I just use a towel for about 5 minutes!!! LOL
