    Ok, I’m stumped. I want to fill the shift diagram but I haven’t had any luck. I tried a paint pen - no bueno. I tried the nail polish tip - no bueno. I even tried some apoxie sculpting plastic to fill it - no bueno.

    Anyone have a method to fill the diagram? Thanks in advance if anyone has any tips for me!

    If you are talking about the first post, very bottom of picture set that has been professionally cerakoted.

    @Kopasz has provided us with the details from his plater. (1 page back)

    Follow up:

    Figured it out! I bought an extra fine black paint pen and filled it in. I had a few minor blemishes but gently wiped the top clean with nail polish remover. It’s just the look I wanted. I’m going to spray it with satin clear to take a little of the shiny off the knob. I don’t think the clear will last long, but I guess I’ll see. I have my console torn apart putting the new boot on. It’s going to look nice when I’m done!

    Final final follow up, lol:

    Boot and shifter installed, I freaking love it! In hindsight, I would’ve ordered the brake boot too, but oh well, future project!

    Yeah, turn around was a week or so. It’s a nice little interior upgrade.

    Got mine installed last week! Loving it so far! High quality piece. The extra weight definitely improves shifting feel. Mine is a Hybrid delrin knob, stainless core with V2.0 aluminum collar. Install was super easy. I didn't require any shims to my surprise, threaded on perfectly straight on the first attempt.

    The Redlinegoods boot makes it all look that much better. (Sorry not a manual...)

    Damn that turned out nice!

    Is that the aluminum with delrin ring in V2?

    Yeah, with knurling, the shift pattern and trd engraved. After driving with it even this short time, it’s a much nicer feel shifting vs. the stock knob.

    I went ahead and made this a catch all thread for AT and MT knobs. Also, I added a few recent pictures as well.

    I haven't posted in a while, but while away on vacation ... enough orders came in to keep me busy for a few weeks. All updates for those will be in here! We will see about getting that other thread combined into this one, not sure why it isn't being used ... but it doesn't matter I suppose.

    1wk progress on current batch. One missing here because I ran out of aluminum, 12 more ft of bar should be at my door by the end of today.

    I will definitely be halting future orders for a bit. Would like to get this lot complete, and then free up some time to work on 2 (possibly 3) other developing projects.
