    Just for fun.

    Was bored today, have been wanting a weighted shift knob for a while now. Didnt want to spend the coin, have a polymer knob i dont care about. And i wanted a shifter extender for teh track day.

    So i wanted to share my creativity(or lack of).

    Knob + spade bit.

    Sand it to little for the custom look(;)) and then bling it hard with BBS gold paint

    Make shifter extension. Box rod steel plus a 12x1.25 thread bold with the head cut. (Grind the sides of the bolt to make more square, torch box rod, hammer in...profit)

    Assemble(note, flux coring of nut on bottom of assembly not pictured)
