Flossy Grip-Lock
 
Has anybody here picked one of these up? The fitment is for STI; but Chad from Flossy says that he has sold them to FR-S/BRZ owners with no complaints. I was hoping that someone here has one installed and take a few pics so I can see what it looks like before I decide to bite the bullet and pick one up. I really hate the feel of the stock plastic reverse lockout!

I guess I'll just bite the bullet and try it! I'll post my results.

Nevermind...I think I'm going with a short shift kit in the near future and that will replace my lockout ring. Still picking up the shift knob though!

Good choice on bailing.

It's hard to tell (no it's not but I'll play nice) but I don't see how this lockout would support the shift boot. On our stock lockout there's a shape that looks like /-------\ <-- where the sides are angled and long enough to apply enough resistance to keep the shift boot in place. I got the perrin lockout recently and found out it didn't fit with JPM boot because the perrin has a less extreme angle and length to the conical sides. Which reminds me I need to return the perrin lockout...

That is what I was afraid of...plus I am thinking about the twm short shifter eventually that replaces the entire mechanism; so i would only get a year or so of use out of it.
