Since I like subtle things on my car that dont scream "look at me" I think the color combinations should be dark and matte:

Matte black knob --- with flat black AMS logo

Flat black knob --- with matte AMS logo

"Gloss" will stand out too much in my opinion, and for example most people prefer the ARC UNpolished knob compared to the newer polished style.

Although it is an AMS product I dont think that the knob should be plastered with the logo, an AMS logo on the drivers side as well as the passangers side should be sufficient for everyone to view; inside and outside of the vehicle. Or just ontop, or just around the taper ring on the bottom works fine!

Thanks for reading my feedback I plan to buy one as soon as they come out

I hope you're not molding them in house, Delrin is a NASTY material. lol It is however, a great material for a shift knob.
I personally like a shift knob that I can put my hand "over" rather than "around". I'd buy one in a sec if you make a shorter one.

i personally would prefer it the way it is, black with the red lettering... i think its pretty sweet, but maybe a little smaller and or rounder if possible

I think AMS etched into the top of the knob would be cool, so the whole thing stays black. Idk about all the red AMS logos, but I def like the knob.
