Default Do You Like This Real Carbon Fiber/Leather Shift ****? (Pictures Inside)

Hello,

Last week we finished a Real Carbon Fiber and leather manual shift ****. We remade another test and added stitching to it. This are the results we got from the second test. Please let us know what you think. They are going to be in production by early next month. Like I stated before the pictured shift **** is a test one that we use. We guarantee the best quality carbon fiber and leather on the market.

This one was the test we made last week, it was made with leather without stitching

Yes... but I'd have done it in reverse.

CF number button on top... THEN leather for the front pannel , THEN CF for the rear pannel...

Bring the color to the front

I'm not a big exposed carbon fiber fan but that looks pretty nice. The main thing with a shift-****, however, is how it feels in your hand.
