Hey guys,
Firstly i'd like to say that tiptronic is ALOT of fun. The main thing i dont like is the gear knob, it still gives that auto feel, not a manual feel. Just curious whether you can get custom auto knobs that look like a manual knob? Has anyone attempted to modify a manual one to fit?

I have a picture in my mind to make a manual one with a small button on top (for auto shifter button) and it looks nice in my head, putting that into practice though would be another story lol.

lol fair enough, what do you think i should do? I'm thinking king lows all round and colour coding as my next mods, though still am interested in a custom shifter, maybe wait til after the lowering and colour codedness.
A KJ verada grille would be nice too, hmmmmm.

*EDIT*
Also need to know that place you got your springs from cheap ;).
And also how much should spring installation cost me if i supply the springs to say someone like tyrepower? I asked when i got new tyres put on but the guy who did springs had just left, CBF calling back.

lol i got my magna color coded and its a gunmetal color. tis important! hehe. but on a red car put it right at the top of your list. 150 or so only. On another note, i just brought the momo black leather auto shifter ... expensive mofo :'(

Ill do your springs mate, dont worry about that - So the cost = $220 for the springs themselves.

Id do this:
Lower
Colour Code
Verada Grill
Gearstick <--- who the fudge is going to be looking at your gearstick anyhow..
