I got it from passwordjdm.com very quick shipping got it right after the weekend when I ordered on a Friday.

And it feels great! It gives me a better grip and response when I shift.

Just got the black one myself. Good to see.... looks great. Is it a screw on install? Any issues w/ fitment?

when you screw off the stock knob there should be a metal piece, your going to have to take it off (slides right off) and it should be a direct screw on after that.

Looks good. Also, great choice with the delrin...my Nismo gets freaking hot if it sits out on warm days.

Just got mine as well, it feels so much better than the stock "baseball" shifter. I ordered mine from Password directly as well and it came in a few days.

Silver, I thought about the delrin but was concerned about the weight.
