    New Product - Shift Boots



    New Product: Project-G Shift Boots

    We were growing tired of running our busted vinyl oem shift boots and had always wished for real leather. Our G-String guy made us a few samples and we were really impressed. We weren't surprised since we had specifically chosen him for the quality he produces. Pictured are the samples he made for us. When we were deciding on the material, he shows us some leather he used on a high-end super car he had just finished. So from this point forward we know what we are going to be using. Unlike some of the others available, we have addressed the issue of the top retainer ring. So these are ready to use without hacking up your existing shift boot.

    We wanted to keep the price reasonable, so we struck a deal and we can bring these to you for $45 shipped for either NA or NB. The standard color choices are black leather with black, red, navy blue, or green stitching. Other materials and colors are available for an extra charge.

    Any interest?

    Will they be done in smooth leather or textured (as shown on the example third from the top)?

    They will be for the most part smooth, but due to the fact that it is authentic leather, there will be some variances. If someone has a strong preference, they should indicate it at the time the order is placed. The NB installed sample pic is the textured one you are referring to.

    We are picking up the test piece today. Special discount for those who have already purchased our shift boots.

    I think textured leather with all its variances give it uniquness. These look fantastic IMO.
