Default making a shift knob flush(Without cutting corners)

So I bought the CF nismo shift knob and basically, I hate it. I actually prefer the stock one better. I like the curve of it so that my hand wraps and sits comfortably on it.

So I'm going to buy a slightly cheaper one from sickspeed. The white one with racing stripes (a member did an install here).

My question is how I can buy this shifter knob and make it flush with the shift boot.

What I want in the end is maybe an inch of pole between the shift boot and the knob, if it sits high. Or flush if it sits real low (if short shifter is the solution). I just don't want to cut any corners and I want it to look nice.

See this.

I don't like how high it is when he is done with the install. However, I also don't like how goofy it looks after he tosses that motorcycle part on it. I hope I'm communicating effectively what I'm going for.
