Ah, right, I thought this was going to be your first haha... My bad...
im2bad4ya, I don't classify the Hugh Grant call as a dad's joke - that one was actually quite clever & genuinely funny ;)

Ya, I've been watching this thread for 6 months now, which was why I eventually got fed up & decided to try help... turns out I wasn't much help, but managed to think of someone who was helpful! hahaha

Scraping money together now before it's too late :(

I still need to come up with another $100 or so for the Colt Cams bulk buy, and after that I'm saving for a crossmember and rear tie bar. I hate having unpredictable income. :(

Nice, I kinda like that! I think I prefer the MS ones over it though... The smooth topped ones CorkSport was selling, not the sticker style.

It looks nice in pictures, nd4spdse, but I have one... it didn't look the best on the car, I was like,"meh." it definitely isn't that shiny... it didn't really flow well IMO.

I think if it was buffed out to a mirror finish, it would however compliment a polished VC or IM though.

so i received my E-brake handle yesterday and i'm very impressed with it.
one thing that's maybe irrelevant but i found to be really nice was that the finish is smooth and has no sharp edges or anything that will catch your skin, even on the inside. (don't ask why my finger was in there =P)
not sure if he did this on purpose but i'm sure he did and did a great job, it's nice not having to worry about getting a metal sliver or something.

Here's some pictures of the product.

You can really see the work he put in here by tapering the edge rather than leaving it with a sharp edge

I'm really happy with it and will probably buy another one in the future for my GS if he still makes them.
Thanks a lot Jim!!!
