nice car you got there. it doesnt really matter what type of bend you buy, its just a matter of preference. the single bend is more for if you sit closer to the steering wheel, id get the dual bend if you like to do the gangsta lean.

It's the other way around.

Double bend sits like a stock shifter - straight up and down.
Single bend it is slanted towards the arm rest.

Both Skunk2 short shifters end up at the same spot. Just one is angled the other is straight up and down
