Default Lambo style shift plate?

ya know the slotted steel plate for the shifter in a lamborghini, instead of a shift boot? has anyone ever seen someone try to do this for this car? i know the pattern wouldn't look like it, but i have seen people do it for a celica, and an rsx i think?

just curious if anyone had seen one before, here is a link to what i am talking about

I wouldn't mind seeing this come to life.

If this happens, you guys should get a new shift **** also to go with the plate. I think the ball ones are the only ones that would look decent with the plate.

^hopefully not like that... that looks like crap!

This shift gate, if it were to be developed, will take a little R&D.

I've always been jealous of this feature (among many others of the Lambo)

If someone designs a quality version of this for the Z, I'm definitely in.
