It's not too late to change my order from a 2.25" WHITE to a 2.0" WHITE is it? I just realized I kind of like the stock shift knob size which is closer to 2.0".

The stock knob is comfy, so ill go the standard 2.0", money sent. Dont suppose you can carve the shift diagram on it? Im guessing if you could, you would offer it. Cant wait to try it!

I have not completed them yet, Tony. I am working on all of them at once because it speeds up production compared to doing one at a time (hence the drastically reduced pricing). I will put a shipped status next to each product when they ship out. Most likely, they will all ship within a few days because I plan on finished them together. Ill be busy this weekend working on them.

I changed your knob info in Post1 to 2.0" White. This actually helps me because I just found I don't have the 2.25" white in inventory. Saves me from ordering it since the 2" white is in stock! Your price was reduced to $72.00 now.

Updated your status, payment received. I can't do the engraving on the knobs, that requires a high-dollar machine to do it right. You may be able to get it professionally engraved at one of those engraving places though. In addition, if I do it, theres no guarantee that the pattern will sit the right way up when you tighten it onto your car. You risk having an upside down pattern.

Hey Chris ... I'm giving in.. there appear to be 3 spots left?

Put me down for Copolymer STi Sphere w/ Brass.
I'm correct in that while its 2" diameter, it's shorter than the stock know (1.8" vs 2.0"), right??

Ill add you on. Price for that is $72.00 shipped, and my paypal info is on page2 in the post with huge red letters
The total height of this knob is about 1.8" tall, but it is wider because it is a full sphere whereas stock is more barrel shaped. It will still fit your hand pretty well.

I just want to share my experience with this Chris. He is a great person to work with, and will go beyond himself to help you out. These shiftknobs are very well made and are worth every penny!

oooo look at this stock shiftknob...



but wait.... what is this??? oh its the brass inserts that Chris makes...how did this get in the stock knob??? Thanks again Chris.

Wider is fine. Shorter is good!

Payment sent.

Payment received! Thanks!



UPDATE:
I cut enough brass inserts for 18 knobs today and have all the knobs hollowed out in the bottom awaiting the brass. After inserting the brass into them, they need to be cut round and then shipped out.
Im going to finish up the first 18 knobs during the next couple days and begin shipping. Then I will go back and make the rest of the inserts and finish the other orders.

They will be roughly made/shipped in the order of pay received.
