I ordered an imitation Tommy Kaira shift knob (flat black) from grafixpressions.com.
Only 90.00.
I really wanted the Tommy Kaira but they're back ordered...plus they scream "Steal Me". They offered a TK clone in many colors, also Titanium color to better match my car but I got black. I think it will blend in with the interior of the car better. I'm not a showy guy so subtle is better for me.
Hopefully this black one that's an exact clone - sans Turtle, will satisfy me. Honestly I don't even know if I'll like it or not, so this will be a learning experience for me. I've never had a heavy shift knob before, many many articles on here solidly recommend them so I'm giving one a try.

I may, in time, have it repainted another color and engraved. Shouldn't be too expensive to have that done.
