Ya, I had to grind away at the stick, but its all good because I can set it as low as I want since I cut the stick lower too.

That's neat! If you don't mind me asking, how did you get the color in so precisely?

hehe, its actually pretty simple.
i had some paint left over from when my GF was painting my centercaps, and i used the smallest brush that i had, but of course even with that it still went all over the numbers and outside of them. but since the numbers are inside, when u use your finger to whipe off the excess paint it just removs that, not the paint inside, so u can go at it all u want, and anything that u dont like thats on the top of the knob, use ur finger and whipe away and the numbers become very crisp, just make sure that u whipe it off RIGHT away
once u do it u will see what im talking about, the whole painting of the knob(excluding getting dirt out of there) took about 5 minutes tops
good luck

No I cant put the stock knob on, but then again I never had one. From the looks of it though, all of your knobs look super high to me, so Im fine with mine, and if I ever want to change it, I can swap it with all other aftermarket knobs without having to change anything.

Cool, thx. If the black shift markings ever start to fade on mine, that's what I'll be doing. Cheers.
