Although at an extra cost, Ed at EdGuard can have a boot made for you to your specs. So if you really want it, it can happen

They are also customizable and manual knobs available too! I absolutely love the one I put in my car (the one in the video thumbnail). They offered to do a giveaway of two knobs so if you like it you should comment to enter to win one. You will be one of probably 100 so good chance of winning.

Thanks for the video, I keep coming back to this idea :)

Our Spyder came specced to bordeaux red stitching so the brighter red would probably be noticeable. That and the yellow font of RS shifter is holding me back.
EdGuardUSA custom fabricated this boot for our BGTS, since there were no vendors offering Graphite Blue Boots with Racing Yellow stitching. Matches our interior perfectly.

The model designation stitching looks sweet, wonder if they can do Spyder :)
How did the process work? You purchased OEM and made arrangements with EdGuardUSA to ship to them?

I called Ed and he outlined the process, stated a price, and claimed the boot would be an exact match with our Graphite Blue Leather with Racing Yellow stitching, something no other vendor would do. Then, I purchased the Sport Shifter & Boot from Suncoast and had it sent directly to Ed for custom boot fabrication. Once completed, Ed shipped the final product. Installation was unbelievably easy. The entire transaction was a breeze, communication A+++, and both the leather and stitching are, as promised, an exact color match. I highly recommend Ed and his work and look forward to seeing a picture of your finished product.
