So, the other day I was driving down the road, went to shift into 4th and the knob went to the back of the tib, and almost yanked the car out of gear.
I looked down and what do you know, the little plastic part of the shifter was there but the knob was in the back. So after a trip to advance I got my new knob, and decided to pick up some chrome paint. Tell me what you think.

Sorry the pics are really bad, low grade camera, poor lighting, and an oddly timed flash



Hard to see but the trim ring is now very brightly shiny chrome to match the knob.



And without flash



tell me what you think, I will be getting a better camera sometime this week, oh and notice the green surround is GONE!

 

lossing the stock knob happen to me before, but i was at the track....it made me almost miss a shift

 

yea, thats what happened to me, only i wasnt at the track, just went to shift, and the knob moved but the rest of the stick didnt move until i had the clutch out again, and i just about ripped it out of gear 02.gif.

 

knob looks good.. can't tell what the ring looks like though.

 

yea the ring is really hard to see, but it looks almost exactly like the aluminum rings sold by... um.. i dont remember his name, but its really shiny
