Wood Shift Knob
Hi, I'm having a problem finding a decent shift knob for my manual 2008 550i. I'd prefer something similar vs. all black or chrome because of the interior colors. My current one (pics attached) has a hair line crack. The pics are more for reference, you can't see the crack. I can definitely feel it with my finger nail. My guess is it was from the heat, I bought the car from an owner out of Virginia. Any suggestions on where I can order one would be helpful.
TIA

Seven,
Did the boot come with it? I've seen those but I only saw it with red stitching that's why I was hesitant. If you wouldn't mind I would like to know where you got it. Thanks.

Well, I went with the ZHP weighted 6-speed shift knob. Pretty simple to install, except when I smacked the new knob on I couldn't hear if it snapped into place or not

Thanks. I think wheels are next. The previous owner didn't know wtf they were doing cleaning them, they're all pitted. Then I'm also thinking of putting on some H&R springs, in time.
