Sorry, this was the shifter I mentioned. To me, it looks better then the standard wood shifter. Just my thoughts... Cost $89.00.

I don't think the color would match as precisely as the OE ones. But the shape look pretty good. Too bad they don't, neither OE or Bavauto bother to offer an SMG version.

My oem shifter doesn't match the the rest of the wood very well. This one is nice and seems cheeper.
