Default Shift **** suggestions

I'm looking for a nice looking aftermarket shift **** for my ride. I don't like really flashy or carbon fiber, but my stock **** is falling apart, and want something somewhat distinct. Anyone have any suggestions/***** they've used on their rides? If you have any pictures as well that would be enormously helpful, as it would really be nice to see what it looks like on the ride before I buy one.

Thanks for your feedback all!

Default Forged Performance

I recently bought the Forged Performance **** from someone here. I like it becaus of the weight...little to no vibration. More imprtoanlty, a hard shift from 2nd to 3rd on my old Nismo **** would hit the bones on the palm side of my knuckles on the index finger. I think someone was selling their **** recently for a good price.

+1 for the Forged ****, I love mine. The weight of it makes every shift much smoother, especially the 1-2 shift.

Only thing about the forged and most other ***** is the heat. I would love to get one but the heat in TX gets extremely hot. You wouldn't be able to touch the ****. If only the stock **** sold for a cheaper price I would get me a new oem ****.

Tommy Kaira Hebi Bebi


edit:
I have experience with the forged performance ****, the nismo, team voodoo and stocker. the tommy kaira is the best by far, but is priced as such.

I would rank them:

Tommy Kaira > Team Voodoo > Forged Performance > Stocker/Nismo (tied)

Do any of these actually THREAD onto the stock shifter?

I have a cheap one that "bolts" to it, instead of threading, and now since the exhaust it likes to vibrate loose. It's quite irritating.

if you want a new **** (as people already said), a good option would just be to head over to a nismo one :PP

Hey all, thanks much for the feedback. I decided to pick up the forged performance ****... I like the look, I just hope it doesn't get too hot to handle

Do I need to pick up a finisher with it too?
