Finally got a couple of pics of my awesome ****. It actually took longer for me to take the photos than it took Doug to machine it from my design picture and to ship it to me!

The design was a perfect fit to my last name!

I was originally going to go with a billiard ball, however, my source for a custom-made ball fell through after weeks of negotiation (the business must have completely gone under, as even their website disappeared). I went back to the drawing board and ended up with Doug's **** above.

Sorry to grave dig on an old post but does anyone have any more pictures of this with other *****? Anyone ever put the JCW CF and alcantra **** on a shifter with exposed shaft like this one? I cant stand the boot going all the way up to the **** on the MINI.
