He must be.. He threw a fit when I didnt want to let him remove it..

So i said go right on ahead there RAMBO ..

and he took it off.... Afterward he did grab his shoulder as if it hurt..

BTW my shifter never heats up.. It has cooling fins on it..

What do you guys think?

I believe that 100$ 'ish price point is even pushing it, but well worth it since the **** looks very nice. I thought that it would be possible to just have a TI finish, rather then making the entire **** out of TI so it could still be a weighted ****. I'd really love on in TI finish instead of the chrome/polish finish. But I would not pay twice the price for the ****. I would pay that same price with the TI finish though.
