anyhow, in my civic si I had a nice "brushed alum knob" which was the JDM Civic-R version... I know we Lancer owncers have "RallyArt" but the RA knobs I have seen are ugly... is there anything else I am missing if I want a JDM knob? - something simple like this:

I LOVED s2000's stock shift knob (they DO share shift knobs with SIs right? I think the s2k I drove had that shift knob)...I wonder if any aftermarket company is going to make a shift knob that looks like that...

Not very genuine JDM, but might suit your needs.

Actually, that last one looks like something completly different, notice it has the MR gauges, yet no MR plate near the shifter, in fact, there is no bezel around the shifter base at all, yet it has evo 8 cloth recaros, that appears to be, an identity crisis. The parts I see in that picture come from three different cars.

Um KartaRailed, and thisxguy......FYI, the Evo VIII MR's have the black and blue recaros, so that is a MR, gauges are there, the MR Badge is right under the shifter, there is no bezel around the shifter on a MR, and the Parking Brake handle has the aluminum/CF handle. Hope that helps.

To the creator of this thread, if you want a nice JDM knob, Varis makes a CF one LOL, I think I saw it on bulletproof automotive.
