That will look nice!

The part of the knob that mounts to the shifter stalk tucks inside the boot, so it doesn't look like something's missing from it, although a black ring would certainly make for a nice finisher.

I'll take better pics later in the week, as well as some with the shifter all the way over into the M section.

Bit of a slow down getting the GT-R button finished -- some further sanding to smooth it out is needed, and my first painting attempt didn't come out all that well.

I think once I get the little details sorted, it should look pretty good. Trying to paint it a nice satin slilver, but if it looks terrible, I'll just paint the button and lower knob bezel black (probably body matched MB).

That said -- the M45 knob is really growing on me, and may just be the winner. If so, I'll probably sell off the modified GT-R knob.
