80 cent suede shift boot
Took about 45 minutes start to finish, probably 20 if you have any idea how sewing works. Bought $20 in supplies from Jo Ann fabrics (I have enough to make about a dozen more from that)
It's not awesome or perfect but hey I did it!

Yeah I don't know how to make that kind of seam lol, I just stitched them together
I've been looking for a good handbrake handle for weeks and I can't find anything that isn't NRG or probably fake. It seems nobody makes real handles anymore, momo and sparcos sites are both dead.

That handle is made by Isotta, and I bought it on eBay several years ago. The leather matches the grain of the console perfectly, and there's elastic to mate with the handle.
Bought both boots on eBay from a place in the UK called "the_tuning_shop_team". $30 shipped in about a week, and real Alcantara, not fabric. They can custom-make anything you like.

Already checked that one out, nothing there matches my interior. Brian M had posted awhile ago recommending them.
I'm afraid I'll have to resort to...gasps...NRG if NARDI doesn't get back to me soon on a quote of their pure aluminum handle.
Basically I don't want polished or ss. I want only black, white or blue.

the leather on the Isotta will peel off - the seam is on the bottom, and you could replace it with whatever color you want. I do recall other colors, too, but not sure about white - maybe red and blue.
EDIT: Just Googled this one:

It's not the boot, I'll be making my own boot or having RLG do it. It's the handle itself.
I'm waiting on a US distributor to contact me back about this:

EDIT - to clarify I don't want stainless steal or brushed aluminum, they clash with the interior something fierce, especially mine.

Mine came with no boot, and I don't recall if there was an option for the boot, or not. It was maybe $50.
I emailed Nardi just a few weeks ago about a missing rubber bushing for the shift **** on my old BMW 635. They got back to me right away, and sent me to Crowders as their US distributor.
