New pedal pads and trim, new stainless door sill plates, and a new shift boot and ring bring it all together, and I also took some 1200 grit to my shift knob to knock the sheen off. I’m not 100% sold on the stock style shift boot, but I’m not sure what I would do instead; leather and billet just don’t seem like they belong here...
It fits the theme: "Nothin' to see here folks"... then they start to notice little subtle details. It looks freaking great!
Don't worry though, someone knows someone that had one just like it.

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
