I just put a b&m dual bend in my civic last week with es bushings, it is AMAZING. I love the way iit feels. No more slop in the shifter, bushings tightened it up real nice. Shifting feels so much better, it is like driving a new car. I use my oem shift ****, I love the way they feel, I can't feel a difference between that and my weighted Skunk2 ****. But this is probably one of the best things I spent money on for my car, for about $70 for parts and having it in, makes a world of a difference.

Ya see mine will all come out to about $170, but I guess with boot and Spoon **** that's why it's so much. Oh well you pay for the quality.

Holy s***, I would never pay $70 for a shift ****! And I'd get a pwjdm shift boot, like $25 and REALLY good quality. My Skunk2 **** is really heavy but I like oem. If I was going to buy a **** I'd probably just get Blox or even just an eBay one, can't mess up a ****...

I hope you got the black es bushings too.

for shift boots check out the seller topgaiters (or maybe it was top_gaiters, idk) on eBay. He's in the UK and his prices are great. His work is nice and he uses real leather, and he can do custom alterations to his design.


For the short shifter, it was extremely expensive for a shifter, but I love my B&M Race shifter with spherical bearing
