Ok, lets put this into a perspective you guys will understand. If you have a well upholstered lady in the passenger sea, gear changes go something like this "Excuse me, shift, repeat"....

reminds me of when me, (6'2" 200lbs) and my buddy kalin (6'1" 215lbs [muscle mostly]) would pile into my buddy andrew (5'11" 190lbs)'s regular cab bench seat ranger, with a manual trans... kalin learned to shift a shifter between his legs, as andrew missed the shifter once...

Hit a hard enough pot hole and she'll end up on the, shifter....

I still don't think it will matter... looks to me like the top of the trans is at shoulder height anyways. You will be able to hear the valves clicking into place lol.

so i'm trying to get this damn trans tunnel happenning.i was looking around to find something to make the templates from,and came across this calendar that the dupont rep gave me.it's not too bad,nascar stuff and all,but i look over the pics and it's nothing but chevies from january to december.

can't hang that on my wall.

i mean don't get me wrong...a nascar calendar that has some chevies,some fords,even a dodge or two(god-they'll have friggin toyotas these day,too)is ok by me....but nothing but chevies-no way.

so,anyway-i figure i can use the calendar to make some templates with.maybe that dupont rep is good for something after all:icon_thumby:

Pennies on the dollar compared to what it'd cost to ship it. Just a guess.

Oh...damn I figured he'd deliver it. I just curious what it would cost for him to make it. I figured buy both bumpers mold them to make a plug then make a single bumper. I know there is a market out here if the bumper comes out nice, do you how many people want SVT bumper for there focus sedans? Alot.

you would need a lot.or a few,anyway.i figure if i had both the bumpers to make the plug from,the mold would cost at least a grand.then each part out of it would be about $250-300.

Happy 3,000th post! Thinks that honestly don't sound that bad. I'm going to see how much I need for the stuff if I make it.
