Those look really good. I wonder if they are solid or hollow. T1R has a similar knob at a similar price.

These knobs are almost exactly the same weight as the oem shift knob and as you can see from the pic above it does sit a bit lower.

are they coated or it's a real flame finish(titanium) ?

coated blue flame sh-t rubs off and you can't get back the color

Need a super heavy version of these somehow!! Hate the feel of a light shift knob.

Its real deal burnt titanium, no fake finish

and this knob is heavy!! I put it on the scale at work here and its 440 grams!!

Thats more then double the weight of the stock knob

can anybody get a picture comparing the sizing between this and the J's? The J's looks bigger to me.

haha! Sweet, people are using my comparison shot! Ya, I purchased mine back in December when they came out I guess and posted him that pic. I love mine and it's a great alternative to all the other Ti knobs. And yes, it's true titanium and weighs in nicely!

Nice knob. The Ti lugs are pretty hot too.

for those who are interested, I believe he has them for an even lower price, like 95 shipped I believe. I paid a bit more but def worth it. I may purchase another. Search Honda marketplace in the sponsors area...
