Not a fan of the look that the auto has, dealer couldnt find me a man-tranny black on black in Canada, so i ended up settling for auto black on black, but i just really really want the look
personal preference

after further analyzing, it definitely looks possible....give it a shot
P.S. It looks like you can use the auto knob and just put the boot |

Makris, as you know, the button would be the hard part....and you know the boot would be easy.....but to complete the look try one of these, a Barton Piston Grip Shifter....FOR AUTOS!! looks awesome and are SO easy to install. http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showthread.php?t=80373

post back with pics if you get this done, I think that automatic Barton pistol grip with a boot would be a huge improvement in the looks department- Since that Barton shifter clicks down and occupies the whole stick might not work out too well though
