I made a shift boot from a very old Crown Royal bag. Shitty picture from when I first made it.

Not sure if you are looking for examples of custom ones or tips on how to do it but here is a nice writeup:

and arm rest is in works as well as hand brake cover

i can make more for people if wanted but you would have to get materials if possible and i can ship it out.. have a sage green thread and yellow (kevlar) thread and black thread..

There's a new Crown Royal black (not sure if it's new, but it's new to my store) that would look pretty tight in a black interior.

seems like crown royal is everyone choice of use.... they look nice but i was looking for someone who actually got one stitched up and custom sewn

Yeah, I've seen a few of the completely custom ones, but I can't remember who it was that had em. I only have mine until I finally buy another OEM one or a Nakamae boot (laziness).
