Please Post Pics of Shift *****!
Well, I am finally getting tired of the rattle from the stock **** on the Ripper and I am looking for a good replacement. My first thought is the Hardbar, but I want to see some other options and get your opinions. So, please post pics if you have them or post links. Thanks! :cheers:

I like the looks of the Delrin, but how is the grip? From the pics it doesn't seem like that much to hold on to?!? I know they use something similar in the C5R, so it has to have a lot going for it!

I used to have this Momo:
I got rid of it because it kept vibrating loose no matter how tight I made it. Also, because I had to tighten it so often it gouged my threads and I had to use a die to clean them up again. But it was sure sweet looking :D

They 'bolt on'. The Ripper will cause rattle in any **** at high rpm becasue of the hollow stalk. There are a few ways to combat this. In fact, there is a thread out there going on the subject I believe.

I have the same one only its a bright red, with the black/gray checkers between the red as they are in your picture. It was real cheap, think I only paid $18 for it at Auto Zone. I figured what the heck - it looks real nice and it matches my WET OKOLE Seat covers. I figured for $20 I can't lose. Its lasted a year and I haven't had any issues with it. Its funny - I get so many compliments on it.

LOL - Now you are hurting me.
I looked long and hard for this shift ****. It is from the old 85 Camaro Z's. I always liked them and they work good for me. I guess not your style.
