MGW chrome shorty gripper shifter / accessories

[Ghoust]

Guys,

I pulled the trigger the other day on MGW shorty shifter and chrome accessories. Sorry the pic is blurry but you get the idea. I haven't had the chance to drive her afterwards so I can't comment on what it feels like but I have to say it is a dramatic difference from stock just by looking at it. Install was only about 15 minutes.

Knuckle bashing?
I was thinking about the first strike shifter from MGW (slightly taller), but don't like that it's plastic.

What , you forgot to get the cupholder trim ring???? Viperjon, I currently have the First Strike and had the old metal one on my previous Vipers. The new one is a composite, but frankly I didn't even notice it was different until I chatted with George at VOI-11. It has a great feel and I heartily recommend it. Looks just like the previous ones, and until George told me, I didn't have a clue that it was not metal like in the past.

Super nice quality, like all of his stuff !!!

I had the shorty shifter in my GTS and liked it a lot as well. I guess it's just the "plastic" part that turned me off, I know George's stuff is top shelf.

Bill, can you buy just the shifter that comes in the '10 ACR's?
That would be the ticket.

The composite that George uses does not transfer any heat from the transmission to your hand (can be a benefit).

I have the first strike knob in my 01 ACR and I love it! It has a great feel in my hand and makes shifting real easy.

Guess I'm the poor man that has to ask, how much was it ?

They are $75.00 plus shipping on MGW's website.
