Are you going to put "Big Paw" on the door to top it off? It think that would look nice. Shifting from 4th to 3rd comes with practice, and the secret is engine speed. If you notice when you shift from 3rd to 4th it's a wide gap in gears, like one is missing. So when you down shift from 4th to 3rd it requires a BIG engine rev to to match gear speed and to keep the gears from grinding. My daughters drive mine now and then and if you tell the daughter "Boy, this is a real boy magnet," that's usually all it takes. Glad the wife and daughter enjoyed it.
