Nismo GT titanium knob...

Hey guys,

I just got this Nismo GT titanium shift knob cuz it looks pretty comfy and kind of stylish too. But I was wondering, is there a good decal or sticker I can put over top of that bolt hole?

I've seen little "3d button decals" for other auto manufacturers, such as Audi and BMW, like the one below:

TIA,
B

After using it for a day, I love this shifter! It feels so tight and I feel like my hand is integrated into the tranny now...

The only downside is my leather wrapping is somewhat old and kind of torn. where it met the old OEM '03 shift handle. Anyone know where I can get a nice aftermarket replacement? Or how much it'd cost to get an OEM replacement?

just buy a rubber grommet from home depot...it'll cover up the wear and connect the boot with the knob. search rubber grommet on the forum.

I love mine too, I started with the rubber nismo GT knob, and loved the shape, but it wasn't heavy enough so I switched to the titanium GT knob and its been the best knob I've ever had. I have the ballcock washer on mine also, get it from HD

So you got a ballcock washer? Did you leave everything else in there after taking off your OEM knob?

I installed a hose clamp under the boot to hold it up, and then used electrical tape and wrapped it around the shaft to center the ballcock washer
