"JDM"-style four-seam shift boots

Great news...the first leather shift boot (a short boot with orange stitching for an MSP) was sent out on Sat. So as soon as my partner gets the boot and takes pics (probably within a few days!), we'll be ready to roll...
 
good stuff. if you need someone to "test" out a blue stitched boot, i'll be more then happy to be your guinea pig.....hahaha.........seriously though, i hope everything turns out good and i look foward to purchasing a boot as soon as they go into production.
 
I was thinking...would my boots also fit the MP3 and later model Proteges? I'm guessing the shift consoles would be the same...?

Interested in a black leather set with yellow stitching for a Kartboy SS to 55426 (St. Louis Park, MN) Thanks!!
 
Soon's I have one I'll putup pics of a blue-stitched leather boot on B&M in a '03.5 P5.

As for models of Pro's that'll fit, yep. MP3's and pro sedans, they should all be the same, hell previous gen pro's use the same shifters, Not sure about their consoles, but the boots might even work for those, don't hold me to that though. Perhaps some 2nd gen users'll step up once you become official.
 
how much total to canada?
Here's the pricing... $40 shipped ($43 for Canada) IF PRE-ORDERED. After pre-orders, the price will be $45 shipped ($48 for Canada). (More details about pre-ordering to come...)

See my answer above...

are you just working with black leather?
Yes, for now.

I d be interested if i seen install pix on a short shifter.
When I'm officially ready to take pre-orders, I'll make an official thread that will include pics of a short boot installed on an MSP (which is essentially a short shifter, compared to the stock Pro5 shifter).

Nice...thanks for the info! What I might also do for 2nd gen users is make it a bit more universal as far as how it attaches at the bottom. The dimensions should be about the same...
 
Another update...

My partner has the boot, but I still haven't received any pics of the boot installed...will probably come this weekend. As soon as I get those pics, I'll start an official thread and start taking orders. :)
 
See dude, I've got a happy digicam sitting right beside me... I'd gladly be your partner cowboy ;)
 
Last I heared, he's officially setup, as a vendor, and getting his leather in soon, Should already have vinyl either made and in-stock, or within a couple days of ready-to-ship. His partner ith theMSP's been dragging on postig up pics, but as soon as I see m leather boot, I'll be clicking away wth my digi.
 
I sent in my application for AMM this afternoon, so as soon as that goes through I'll start taking pre-orders. I realize that most (all?) of you will want to see pics first, and you will...shortly. My helper has taken the pics, but was having problems with their server this weekend. I gave the URL for this thread, so they should be putting them up any time.

And yes, I went ahead and ordered my leather, only because I don't have to pay until it comes. It should be here in a few days. I decided to take the gamble, so you guys better come through! :)

Anyway, I again apologize for the delay, just waiting on the pics...
 
Alright, the pics are here!!! The boot is based on the stock boot, but 2" shorter, and is shown installed in an MSP. I just tried uploading the pics to cardomain to serve as a host and them post them here, but I'm having problems with the format. So here's a link to a photo album set up by my helper:

http://www.imagestation.com/album/?id=4286829971&code=9736804&mode=invite&cmp=EMC-IS_other&creative=album-invite

There's some great shots there, including some good shots of the leather's texture. If anyone knows how to import the pics right to the site, let me know.

Anyway, I'm all set except that I'm just waiting to hear back from the Admin. for my AMM approval. As soon as that happens, I'll create an official thread in the designated area. :)
