Default Will this shift **** fit on the Z?

I saw this shift **** at Autozone today, and I was wondering if I could replace the shift **** on my 6-speed 350Z with it. Does anyone know if it will fit?

If anyone has replaced their shift ****, could you please tell me how to do it?

lol - I saw those a year or so ago and wanted to put one on my 84 Rabbit GTI (SCCA ITB race car BTW) just because it's nickname is SuperBunny the Sabertooth Rabbit. Never did it but still fancy the idea just for the WTF effect.

You aren't REALLY serious are you?
Lol, you really think it'll look that funny? I think it'll look pretty good, but I am worried that it might be to short, and uncomfortable when shifting.

I guess I'll leave the shift **** as is until someone does a tutorial on how to replace it.

Garbage. It looks like garbage.

It would be funny on an old VW or a beater Camero, but on a new japanese sports car, it would look like total trash. It clashes with everything in the interior (not to mention the EXTERIOR).

Long story short - Stop. Don't do it. It looks like total cheap crap.

Well, since so many of you think it won't look good, I guess it won't. Maybe my need for something unique has blinded my taste.

I looked at some other shift *****, and I saw a few from MOMO and Sparco that I like. There must be reason the skull **** only costs $13.00 and the other ones costed $40-$100. I won't be getting anything right now, though, since I don't know how remove the original one.

Does anyone know if Stillen or Nismo are coming out with any?
