    I know shogun posted one example, there were a couple different ones people had done. Should i post this in the 7-series section?

    yea, basicly it is a complete transformation, round style knob and leather shift boot.

    hmmm....I saw that surround plastic thing that came from the e38 and I liked it do you know what that thing is called exactly...so I could ask the boys in the yard or the stealer on how much that'll cost?it's kinda hard to explain that over the phone if I just told them "that surround plastic thingy"
