Fibersteel does make some nice stuff. I have a set of drumskins from them. Also, the front jack points(faux style, not for actual use).

But honestly that shifter is a STOCK-style VW shifter in a cheap steel box with a fancy $2 plastic custom-made knob. $1455? They are a bit too big for their britches over there. They could sell it for $500 and make a ton of profit on it.

And that is why I won't buy anything from them today, they've added the P-tax for replica stuff.

I bought a custom 3D-printed gauge pod, intended for a GTI, and installed it in my Cayman. It was $75 delivered in a week. I'd wager anyone with a 3D printer could sell the knob alone for less than $50 and do quite well.

Get me some white plastic or better yet some aluminum stock and I'll make it for you on my lathe. Then paint it white(I think Marty did this in his former IM).
