Ok guys I have been looking for a way to upgrade my shift knob..well after trying to pull it out to paint it..I had a lot of truoble trying to figure it out and gave up..Thats when I decided to try to make a custom fited custom painted cover for it..here are the results.
Here is cover after being sprayed..lots of work to make this cover..templets, cutting sanding,,heating and bending into place:
all thes steps in painting..primer,sanding, base coat3, air brush/ wood grain technique..airbrushed and cleared3

THis was the first one and it came out great. I need to find some super thing 3m tape or I will use the 3m liquid adhesive so ther is no gap between the cover and the knob..Maybe I will put these into production..hee hee hee..
