Christ, man. I'm in love with your car. I've seen a lot of coworkers and such just rice out their cars without any consideration as to how it looks, but your car looks like something straight out of a luxury car showroom. The attention to everything from the seats, to the headliner, to the shifter ****, to even the steering wheel cover really make this car shine. This project was a great read so far, and I'm really looking forward to when you do your boost.

I bought a Nardi leather shift **** (already installed) and never took pics, and I have a new custom shift boot and e-brake boot on the way here (fitment is altered to compensate for the wider e-brake handle and the taller shifter).
And yea, the shifter is short stock. Not to be confused with a short-throw shifter though, because it was not. It was just physically short.
They don't sell del Sol specific shifters. Only for Civics. 92-00 Civics use the same shifter fitment as the del Sol, so I can just use those. As a side effect, the shifter is tall because it's also made for a Civic. Doesn't bother me, because i'm taking care of it.
Love it.

I've already taken care of it. Give me a week or so.
