Difference between OEM shift knobs?titanium vs stock
Hey there, I was wondering, can you tell the difference between the stock 00-01 aluminum shift knob and the aftermarket honda accessory OEM titanium knob. Is the knob pictured on the right a OEM ap1 or the titanium knob? thanks

wait, so is the knob on the right titanium or not? All the titanium knobs ive found are either extremely polished looking or look like theyve been spray painted with dark gun metal silver. I also thought you could not see the "spun" brushed finish on titanium knobs? How many versions of this are there, because now im finding almost polished ones?

It's Ti. It looks a little "fatter" than my AP2 OEM Ti knob but maybe the early models were a little bigger then. That may also be an optical illusion. The one on the left is definitely the stock knob.Andd if it is not OEM Ti then it may well be painted because it is a knock-off. Is the heart of the scoring the same color as the surface? If so, it is Ti.

The link and the picture posted above are both the same shift knob. It's just different lighting. Stock or Honda accessory probably weight the same or similar I would say, it's just one has the leather wrap so it prevents the knob from getting too hot or too cold in certain weather condition.
