    I was thinking shifter itself and not the knob. I fail. How did you make it?

    i took some steel round stock and lathed it down to the shape i wanted. all i have left to do now is to drill out the bottom and tap it so i can thread it on.

    They're like $200 or so if you know where to look. I love working on a lathe.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.
