So it can stick or be a little tough going into 2nd and reverse (reverse hits the side of the plastic on the left) and 5th is almost right in the middle. There is also a slight vibration between 2 and 3k in first and second gear. Very minimal. But from my research it could be worn trans mounts. Visibly they don't see all that contorted, maybe slightly compressed toward the trans. I'll be ordering mounts today unless there are any other suggestions! thanks!

Sounds like somethings broken or bent with your gear selector to me.
I'd take it apart for anything obvious.

Thank you!! Could that be the issue of a slight vibration at low speed accelerating too?Comment

What condition are your motor mounts in?
Trans mounts can look fine but may be sheared. Sometimes can't tell until take the weight of the tranny off them.1990 325i: slippery slope from DD/DE car to SE30/ITS
