How about options for those with no stripes on their cars or those with non-OEM stripes styles and colors?
For example, if I had a black GT500 with no stripes, I'd love to have a Shelby GT500 shift knob with no stripes. Black ball with white or gray lettering and cobra.
Another example, if I had a black GT500 with super snake hood and non-OEM color, SS style stripes, I'd love to have a Shelby GT500 shift knob with SS style racing stripes but in my non-OEM stripe color. Note this is different from the Shelby SS shift ball. This is a GT500 with a SS hood and SS style stripes!
I actually fall into the latter category but if that weren't possible, I'd go with the former as it would still work :-) In fact, if both were available, I might buy one of each for variety! Actually I'd buy 2 of each so I had variety and backups!
Thanks!

I should be rolling out the new program very soon.
At over 1000 possible combinations, it's WELL overdue.

That is great news! I hope there is flexbility with text and stripes for those of us GT500 (non-super snake) owners who have SS style stripes :-D (ie, "Shelby GT500" with SS style stripes on the shifter knob)

Sorry, this project has been back-burnered a few times as our time is consumed by Alcoas, widebody kits, oil separators, etc.
It's one of those things that sounds easy, but has been a real bear to execute.
I'll announce very loudly when we make progress. I appreciate your patience.
