Cmon JP, no need to worry about posting your pics up in this thread. I am really liking what you did to your knob, now cut that shaft, slap that puppy on there and lets see the hotness brother!!

Both shift knobs are great, but I prefer the 2nd one (smooth stainless steel). Question, when you cut the shaft, how is it thread for the knob to screw on? Do you have to re-thread the shaft? And if so, how?

you don't need to re thread. the threaded part of the shaft is long so there is plenty of thread left for any knob

we started off with a mini hacksaw

10 minutes and 2 blades later, we hadn't made much progress

it was time get the dremel out



this baby did the job

sitting nice and low




Big thanks to Jon for all his help and willingness to always have his tools and his garage ready for any mod. Of course you know I had to snap a few shots of very clean WDP...
Custom tinted tails, night shaded side markers, type-s exhaust, Aspec kit, Aspec rims....yeah thats tight

really liking the look of the blackout'd emblem
When you cut the shaft for the shift knob, did you completely remove the original threaded area and rethreaded the shaft again.

Dude im with you i like the mod to a mod better. I wonder how it would look if you painted the TL an type S black or a gunmetal. If you like that you could try to spray the tap job with a clear coat before painting, but nice mod
