Default Shift **** 98+ Gated Shifter

Just got a gated shifter for my car but need new shift ****. I have tan interior. What do you guys think the best looking shift **** would be for it.

Thanks,

Shane

I like the factory **** even though the wood grain texture doesn't match. Now to find one at reasonable price.

Get the all wood from the SC430, it's the closest and best looking wood shift **** to match the 1SC wood grain.

I know what you mean, I got the whole 98+ gated shifter too and the wood grain was way different. I am going to make mine gloss black however to match the rest of my interior.

I was thinking that maybe a solid black leather **** might look good, what do you guys think?
