That's the same guy that was selling the intake cover. MAYBE he won't get caught "aquiring" all these parts.

Anyway, I kinda like it. Looks like the Hurst ball, but silver. The numbers are too big, IMO though. Looks like they're trying to be too "artsy."

I don't think it's a ball, in the below pic it appears to be similar to the factory shift **** shape. Kind of light bulb shaped. I think it's just the top-down angle of the above photo that makes it look round.

You're right... and from that angle it looks even worse. :barf:

EIDT: still better than the stock GT **** though.

I don't recall reading anything from Ford that said that the bright shifter bezel and the different shift **** were included in the GT/CS. And the interior shot shown isn't the interior shot shown in the photo just a regular GT with the Premier Trim Pkg??? I also didn't see these new "features" mentioned for the Premier Trim Pkg either. I'm hoping my car arrives this week so we may just have an answer soon.

Whoa . . . . now that is one "unique" shifter **** and boot. Maybe it would look better with these on.

Yours isn't artsy. It's unique.
Artsy is just the best word I could come up with. (limited vocabulary)

I'm guessing you could use something to remove the black paint in order to achieve the same look.

Yet another ugly part on an ugly car, the only thing that is nice on the CS is the front fascia. When will Ford wake up and give us a SE with power not fake parts and stickers slapped on. Come on Hertz gets a Stang with an extra 30hp. Bring on the Boss or Mach and have a real SE!!!

It appears to be part of one of the other interior trim packages rather than part of the CS:

I like it in the pre-production photo. I'll probably pick it up and just strip the black off. Then it should look really good.
