NISMO **** CF or Chrome

I have an 05 Serengeti Sand on Wheat coupe and am looking at getting the NISMO shifter **** for a shorter throw and was wondering which one I should go with. Its either going to be the carbon fiber or the aluminum chrome **** but im not sure which one will look best with my interior. Also it seems like the chrome **** will be higher maintenance. What do you guys thing?

EDIT: Also now considering Titanium

go chrome (isn't it stainless steel and not chrome?). CF will clash with your interior. All the maintenance that would be required would be for you to wash it off evey couple of months with a cloth, but it's not like you probably don't alraedy do this to your stock **** when you are cleaning your interior.

On MyNismo there is a chrome one. I think in the past I have seen some gun metal nismo shifter ***** with a circular cutout on the top but I cant seem to find it. I think I would prefer that one if i could find it.

I've seen them for 140 as well. It's funny because I bought one for my 300ZX a few years ago and it was only 80 bux lol. If you search ebay for a cheaper one you will more than likely to mistakenly purchase a fake one, not a real nismo one.
