Default Lets see pics of your shift *****

Ok so I'm looking for a new **** for my M6 car and I want to see what you guys have. So far the stuff I've been seeing isn't that interesting so hopefully you guys will have something good that I can copy.

Let me know if the **** mounts on the stock m6 shifter too. This is mainly for M6 guys but if you auto guys want to show off too feel free.

Not very interesting but it's never hot to the touch like the metal shifter handles....

I'm diggin it. How does it feel? There are a lot of times that I just have my hand on the shifter handle and I'm curious if it's comfy like that? I have stock now and was looking for something still in that kind of stock shape b/c of comfort.

It's a Delrin **** purchased from that popular auction site. The guy makes several different shapes. I am quite pleased with it - doesn't get hot or cold and fits the palm nicely.
