Made my own passenger seat lever. CNC machined

UPDATED PICS OF FINAL DESIGN ARE ON PAGE 4. CHECK THEM OUT!!!!

Got extremely bored the other day so I figured I'd make something else for my car. Got the idea from another guy on here who asked me about making something like this for him. So I made a simple design and machined it.

The factory plastic lever is pretty long and hangs out there a ways and alot of people hit their feet and stuff on it when riding shotgun. So I made mine about 1.500 inches shorter. Was going to do a more complex design with some finger grooves and cool radiuses but didn't have the time or motivation to program it, so I stayed simple. Anyways, check it out. Works like a charm. Next time we have some parts going to the plater for black anodizing I might try to sneek this is with them

Thanks dudes. My gf rode with me today and noticed it first thing. I was surprised.

What should I make next?? hmmmm. I'm still working on my subframe attachments for my tunnel brace and thinking about some machined trailing arms. I had the thought the other day of some machined exhaust tips. Overkill?? haha, YES! Would be pretty straight forward lathe work tho. If I keep getting this bored and having nothing better to do with my time this might turn into the "homemade camaro"

Ditto, I would like one also, I think there would be a decent market for this piece, the stock piece looks like crap!
