Sorry to hear that... yeah, just make sure you find a good tapered one. Also while your there, pick up some rubber 3" tubing... then split that apart and use that to wrap around the OEM knob using a wrench if you can't get the strap wrench to work. Will still save your OEM knob.

I was hoping to get the stock knob off as mentioned in other posts with a strap wrench, but there was no way that sucker was coming off. Had no choice but to thrash the stock knob but when it was all said and done, I was VERY happy with results. The picture really does no justice to how beautiful the CF Nismo is, really enhances the interior alot.

Anyway, looking forward becoming an active member here with you all!
Welcome! I'm honored to be the OP that started your first post

Yes the CF looks great too!
