I don't mean to sound rude, but what is the purpose of this? Just to be Uber JDM cool to look like you kinda almost have a Circuit Hero shifter extension. Never understood putting an extension on the shifter.
Short shifters are short for a reason.

And maybe you missed where I said "not to sound rude" and it was an ACTUAL question because I don't understand the point of it.

Short shifters are mainly there for shorter shifter travel, IIRC, the short shifter lever is for aesthetics.
