i had that momo knob on a former car - S60R... albeit mine was two tone..black leather on bottom and aluminum on top...great qualty knob and the size/shape feels good in your hand.

i've never been a huge fan of the OEM knob in our boxsters...but am hesitant to hack up my shifter and install an aftermarket knob.

those momo knobs have a setup that would best attack to a more rounded shape shifter stalk..IIRC... and our shifter stalk is more flat.... has your momo knob stayed on pretty well or have you had any issues with it coming loose????

that 987 shifter looks pretty good..almost a compromise between a true ball shifter and the pistol grip one we have on the 986..... i like that! how hard was it to make that?
