Default Making an automatic look like stick?

I've heard of this before and tried looking for some guides. My problem is I'm only 17 and my parents don't want me driving stick shift yet (don't ask me..) Anyway, I just hate the look of the regular PLNDR and want to have the look of a stick shifter instead of that. Anyone know of any guides?

you just need the right shift **** and the right shift boot. not exactly sure which shift boot works. also heard manual shift ***** would work, you push down on the **** instead.

question why are you trying to do such a thing? who are you trying to fool. stupid IMO

Do an auto to manual swap. And while you're at it, tell your parents that driving a car with a manual transmission makes you much more aware of your driving, and generally makes you an all-around better driver. For example, you will be looking at the road conditions far ahead of you to determine the best gear for the situation. Also, driving in a high gear in the snow keeps the car at a resonable speed and you can use engine braking to slow down in such conditions. Just to name a few....

I've been driving a stick since I was 15 and a half, your parents not letting you drive stick doesn't make much sense IMO. Just show them the facts. If you don't want to do that, just buy an auto shift **** off ebay and call it a day.
