    ^They both seem to be AC Schnitzer.

    My droptop used to have a cheapo wood/chrome shifter, you can kinda see it here:

    For now it's got a stock shifter, but I'll probably fit an M-tech one down the road...

        Seriously tho, that's impressive.
        It was at a stop light. Felt loose all of a sudden (like bending a paper clip back and forth), then snapped at the base. :o

          yes all ACS the shift knob is cool flat on top so can rest hand comfortably round around to grip.I never felt to hot for me to hold it .Its in my m3 so not a daily driver .

              I wish it had more weight, but it matches my Nardi almost perfectly (top and bottom layer)

Paired with Delrin bushings and the Z3.19 shifter. Not a big fan of the ///M in the middle. Didnt know you can pop that out and replace it.
                Does the insert off a standard mtechinc knob work? Zhp looks like it has a curvature?

                          Plain, round knob, no idea who makes it. Super heavy though, works well with my shortened MZ3 shifter. Found a BMW roundel center logo for it finally, just need to glue it in.

                                Agreed, and that one is just way more ergonomic
