while I like the knob itself the color does not go well with the rest of your car at all IMO

^ Agree. Not a fan of the color. I love the pc tho. Looks cool. Nice and low.

Is there any other color? Flat black maybe something closer to the washi finish.

The color doesnt really go with your car, but that is top secrets color so i guess it doesnt really matter, also you should hard wire your radar detector, make it stealthy.

Of all your mods (even the green calipers) this one is definitely my least fave.

Doesn't match anything brother..

The leather is hot enough!

I have burnt my hand many times on the metal at the top of the shift knob... An all metal one in FLA would be murder!

Don't like the color and as far as being top secret... well it is just a knob that doesn't match IMHO

I vote put the stock one back on!

first of all its designed not to get hot and my exterior is way different than the interior. With a stone interior there is no way to make it look stealthy. I didn't want dull black or silver and def didn't want the blue. It was a gift too so I'm not complaining. Best part it how low it sits.

Also OEM knob is completely destroyed as is every other G37 knob that has been removed.

I hate when the radar sits high the windshield, I want it right at the base so stealth cord for me.

Are you just a little bit color blind?

I haven't done half the stuff to my G that I've wanted to because of class...

Like, I'd like to CF the whole interior (cuz I can and it would save a little weight, but then I'd have to go paint it cuz a completely CF interior would be GHEY on a G (unless it's for show and you've killed all the rest of it's class).

IDK man, I mean I actually like the knob, and think it would look good in a black interior. With the gray, it's kind of hard to pull off the gold look, but it's still okay. It's just in combination with the purple headlight/ foglight, blue parking light, green calipers, green interior lights on a blue car....it's just a lot of things going on at once.

IDK, maybe if there was some more cohesiveness to all the colors then it would probably look better and get less negative comments.

Slider,

There is a cohesiveness to it all. CYO just isn't done yet. When he's done it will be very obvious. He's going for this.>>>>>>>>>>>>

Look man, I think you still have the hottest and stealthiest G37 around. +1 for all your contributions on mods on the G37. I know you have a green brake calipers and i know you have painted front grilles. now, take the shift knob and transform its color as you have done in the past with other mods. What do you think? All in all, I love your G37---looks very clandestine.

My Spidey senses are tingling. I am getting a feeling that this topic is about to turn into an automotive brawl.
