Any pictures of the prototypes? Ever considered something similar to Razo RA89 but with Infiniti logo on top?

prototype and thoughts on the design is throughout the thread....

The main body and the lower finisher (made from titanium) will be able to float around the piece that is locked onto the shaft. A spring that will sit on top if the internal stationary piece will allow you to push down on the **** itself to activate the switch.

I believe the RAZO ***** utilize the blue plastic piece that sits on top of the metal bar that activates the shift lock.... I am planning on having the user remove this piece ( all you do is pull it off ) in order to allow the **** to sit as low as possible.

The internal design of this is a little tricky, but at least you wont have to have a button on the top like the MOMO ***** and I will be talking to my vendors for polishing and hopefully the burned/mirror look similar to the ARC *****. These ***** are definitely going to be sexy.

example of the Finish...note this is a flashlight housing

***** will be here soon, thankfully spring break is coming the week of march 19-26, so I will not have school weighing down on my shoulders. I spent a good few hours modifying the internal design tonight and still have to get some springs made up for the internal mechanism. Sorry again for this taking so long, I really appreciate everyone's patience as well as suggestions for what you all would like to see.

I agree with doing something similar to the RAZO ****, but the ball style is what I'm after. Also, after I put the first prototypes out, I plan on putting an Infiniti logo on the top of the ****. I think that will give it a nice look that will compliment the interior.

Stay tuned for updates! Hopefully the next time I post I will have some pictures.

I like the idea of the Infiniti logo.

Thanks for the update Killjulez. Sounds like you are making progress . Personally, I think I would prefer a plain round shift **** without the infiniti logo.

lol no worries, I can do the logo as a custom item to only those who want it. It's not too much work to do.

I also think you should make 1 thats sorta like the razo shift ****, make 1 ball type and one razo type, I'm sure you will be able to sell them easily.

i can do a replica of the razo **** that is titanium if anyone wants that. then, people who have the razon **** already would just have to change the outer shell. It would be a lot cheaper since you wouldnt be paying for the internal components.

Keep up the good work and keep us updated. I'm still waiting on pictures so I can decide if I want the brushed aluminum look or titanium.

Thanks.
