Question Alloy Gear **** (6 speed STI) What’s available ?

Alloy Gear **** (6 speed STI) What’s available



Hi all, well might as well be a **** Question for my first post J



Have had a look for a silver Alloy gear **** for my 03 STI (uk)



The best I have seen so far is the Prodrive silver one but I would like one with

The gear box gate engraved on the top or plain alloy with just engraving

Ie no plastic badge stuck on the top.



Is there anything out there like this or will I have to go with the Prodrive one, if so

Can you get it any cheaper than from Subaru ?



Is the WR1 one available this looks like what I’m after



Thanks for any help,



Co.

If anyone want's one ( they're std screw fit ) pm me and I'll see if the guy in the states has any left. He makes batches of 30 in 6061-T6 aluminium- and they aren't expensive.

They are all plain ( no gate or anything ) . I can ask if he's got a 'ball' one - but much of the cost is his time on the CNC machine - so 'one-offs' may be out of the question.

Cheers

Cool

There was a post on here about 6 months ago from a guy who can make ANY design you want, 6 speed gate, STI, Subaru stars, etc etc for a VERY reasonable price, in ally.

Unfortunately, my computer crashed before Christmas and I lost his e-mail addy. Try a few searches.

Try "Styling" or "Interior".
