Default Custom LatheWerks shift knob - check it out!

Just installed my LatheWerks shift knob... I got the Piston style knob but asked Chris to leave off the grooves and to put a flat dome on top. He was able to deliver exactly what I wanted despite me sending him a pretty rough mspaint diagram .

Got the burnt blue/bronze finish and I LOVE the color. Wish my burnt blue exhaust tips looks more like this.

Knob fits PERFECTLY in my hand... In my 350z I had the Forged Performance shift knob which I loved, but always found myself wishing it was a little fatter and came in the burnt finish. This is the knob I always wanted! Mass came in at just a hair under 465g (or just a hair over 1 pound).

Note: WTF is with the stock knob? I broke two strap wrenches trying to get it off before I just took it to the dealer to ask for help (had to go anyway to pick up a part).. The tech was able to take it off but destroyed it in the process (I assumed this would happen after I broke the wrenches). He told me he's never had so much trouble with a knob and never seen so much loctite... I guess I was owed this, the 350z suffers from the same thing but on that car my stock knob came right off easily.

What do you guys think? Pics!











And finally - the stock knob after the dealer finally got it loose.
kenchan and Zbrah like this.
