You guys want to know a secret?
I literally haven't sold a single one, ever. My most un-popular item to date.
I always look at it as one of my initial dreams when I was starting my company, then I realized how much of a challenge it was going to be but I was persistent getting it done so they were finished a little before my whole idea could come to fruition.
I wanted there to be different tops, middles and bottoms all released at the same time but it was just simply too much overhead to try to get all that stuff made. So I wound up doing what I had to just to release my favorite configuration.
Hopefully down the road there will be evolutions of this product, and I would like for them to be backwards compatible with my old ones.

I know right? That's what I thought. But that's back when I was still trying to think like a businessman. That was the product of many hours of math and doing charts and market analysis to decide if it was worth it. Then after it flopped I decided to throw everything I was told about running a business out the window and just make my own show. It's called Boss Performance, and we do things differently.

Gotta come up with some funky lookin ones... this was a tap handle from our brewery I wanted to run, but the threading didn't match it's clearcoated wood so it probably wouldn't have lasted long anyway...

Your shift boot looks funky. More info on that? Stock one fell apart, Derek had a rubber one he cut and I shoved it in there upside-down to avoid dropping stuff into it / because it looks cool upside-down. Just ordered a shift knob, next up is a similar boot.

For the majority of the time I was going to UTi, I was lucky enough to have TWO NRG quick hubs with TWO MOMO MOD 78's, one in red suede and one in black suede, one new one old, but otherwise identical. Then I had to sell one of the hubs to buy something one week lol. So now I have two wheels but only one NRG hub D:

Which by the way works great. I.also only have one hub For my shift knob I have the prison pink still hood shifter

My dad is a tool and die maker. I may throw some specs his way and have him build me a couple of custom items. I too need a new knob...
