SWEEETTT!! I've been eyeing the DCT retrofit for awhile...Is there a chance of the DCT shifter accidentally going from D on the freeway to R or P since the mechanical shift lock button is now gone?
Also, is the new lower trim piece (now CF Wrapped) from an LCI?

@bese60 the shifter was a retrofit kit I got from motivemods it's up to you if you want to add the base plate I have or keep the one you have on your car currently the controller I purchases from eBay separate FYI it requires coding and some wiring and the trim piece I purchased separately as we'll but once again if you are changing your shifter or controler you can keep your old center trim but you would have to cut the hole for the new controler

@balbs thanks I've been considering it for a while with those same concerns unfortunately you DO run that risk !!!! but it's a risk I chose to take hopefully that doesn't happen to me cross my fingers

Wow man, I like the mixture of the brush aluminum and carbon fiber and the shifter surround piece really pops! Did you wrap it yourself and was it hard? I want to take on a project somewhat similar to this myself buuuuutttt I'm not the most mechanically inclined person.
