I can't determine if I'm thrilled with the new shift boot I just installed, to be honest. The stitching looks like something I could've done. (Not that it would be hard, regardless.)
I like the leather better than the vinyl. I also like the gray stitching I went with. I'll just have to see how I feel about it down the road. I also had to trim my own holes to attach it to the base, as only half of them were cut out. At this point, I wouldn't say I would recommend the vendor, Shift Style. Turnaround time was decent, price was decent. The top pic is the new boot, the bottom is the old.

So, I decided I like the boot, I'll post up tips for install when I get a chance. Two things I'd add...a trim ring along the top like the stock boot (pics will give a better idea of what I'm talking about), and I'm assuming Shift Style folks just missed it, but having all of the holes on the boot precut would have helped tremendously.
