I like your setups....I went through a couple variations and figured I'd post a couple pic's. First I colored in the number pattern on the stock knob then I moved on to the gun metal knob and finally found the red and black combo. The folks at Redline Goods were easy to work with and I had my custom boot within 8 days after placing order. They have a great selection.....


Black & Red shift knob - made by sparcousa.com, model: Litium SV, Finish is red and black perforated leather.

I'll have to look into the Sparco knobs a little further. The shape looks decent but I have a feeling that the weight isn't going to be what I'm looking for (300 - 400+ grams).

I've found similar knobs made by Momo and Razo and most of them clock in between 100 - 200 grams. At that weight I'd rather stick with the stock knob.

Where did you find the weight? I can't find a single link that lists the weight and I've been looking pretty hard for the last couple of hours.

I assume that is in grams.

I'm going to see if I can track one of these down in person, but I have a feeling this isn't the droid I'm looking for.

Thanks for the link though I appreciate the suggestion!
