This is kind of OT but does anybody know where to get the piece that I circled in the picture?

Junk yard... you can get if from the dealership but will have to buy the whole boot... it's held into the boot with a heavy duty rubber band... just go to a junk yard that let's you pull your own parts... walk around and find a manual civic... unscrew the knob... remove the center console... turn the boot inside out... remove the rubber band and plastic ring... throw it in your pocket:rick:.... put the console back... screw the knob back on... walk innocently off the salvage lot and call it a day:thumbup:

I just asked my dad the same exact question, he told me that it was a locking nut.

That is too much trouble, there are not many junk yards in Arlington, Va. I really don't need the piece. The only reason I was asking is that mine cracked in a couple of places. My dad fixed it but it does not look that good because it has apoxy all over it.

No, the ITR one is Titanium... the CTR isn't.

I had it, it was nice and heavy. But I sold it. I know they go for $45-50 shipped on eBay, I know one of the authorized Skunk2 distributors which sells for about $50 shipped.

Yeah, get your own opinion. How about that one?
