My new shift knob!
 
What do you guys think of my new shift knob?

To be honest, I love it. It's light weight, it feels great, looks awesome IMO, and is JUST the right size. Any bigger would have been too much. What do you guys think?

Not that's it's going to change my opinion, but does it light up?

And my opinion....:gotrice:

juiceRx8 11-04-2007 05:37 PM

thebiggdaddy 11-04-2007 05:44 PM

yep! i bet if i just came out and told everyone that i would get nicer replies :uhh:

juiceRx8 11-04-2007 06:44 PM

No, it's just that we have differences in what we can pull off. It's cute for a girlz ride cause it's like jewlry. I pesonally think it's sexy when girls do stuff like that to there cars. However, if I saw a dude rollin with that in his car he would get laughed at big time. Just my opinion.

WBRxGreat 11-04-2007 06:48 PM

so you are saying I should return the one I bought my boyfriend for his s2000? lolol

Mazurfer 11-04-2007 07:04 PM

Maybe something just a little bit more manly? :wink2:

There's a thread with all kinds of shift knobs in it, I'll see if I can find it for you.
You might want to do a search as well.

The Voodoo Magnum shift knobs are really nice. They look classy and sophisticated yet are much more comfortable than the stock knob. I've gotten numerous compliments on my Pearl Magnum knob.

keep it subtle and elegant, in this case smaller IS better. Maybe a small round metal ball knob, maybe with a Black Chrome or GunMetal finish.

juiceRx8 11-04-2007 07:10 PM

^^^^^^You read my mind coastie, lol

Agreed. Cute for a girl. Wussy for a guy.

And I like the factory 8 shift knob personally....

juiceRx8 11-04-2007 07:14 PM

If one of those are you in youre avatar, he'll need one in the shape of bat to fight off guys, JK LOL

WBRxGreat 11-04-2007 07:20 PM

LOL he'll have to fight us off ;X that's weird.

i didnt wanna get him one thats metal and small only because the one he has stock in his s2000 is like that already. I was trying to make us match, now that I think about it I guess it WAS a bad idea. I guess i'll have to search a bit then.

Thats what she said! Sorry I couldn't resist

Cody Red 11-04-2007 07:37 PM

get him the mazdaspeed shift knob. if he doesn't like it, start to cry (in a fake manner).

jk.

looks great since it belongs to a gir that drives the car. i agree with what juicerx8 said.

DarkBrew 11-04-2007 07:40 PM

The knob you have looks really tall. See the pic below.

AWESOME faded pic DarkBrew. And out of the ones posted, I like the brushed Alum one the most. Matches the ring around the shift boot. But you said this is for an S2000..... sooooo I donno

juiceRx8 11-04-2007 07:56 PM

How about a sticker that says.... my girlfriends car is nicer than mine...

WBRxGreat 11-04-2007 08:09 PM

lol the shift knob isn't THAT tall... which is why i got the one I did. Most of them were 6+ inches, this one was just over 4 inches and I didn't want it to look like I had a dildo for a shift knob lol.

A foot? geez that's way overkill T_T

If i put that sticker on his car he would find a sticker that says "my boyfriends car is faster than mine" and put it on my 8 :(

The faded shot is by scsi
Even if it was from an S2000 if you think it looks good then so what?
The black looks good in my interior IMO. I like it with the short shifter.

"A dildo for a shift Knob" God I wish my girl drove a stick, cause thats what would greet her in the car before she left for work....... God thats hotttt.
