See the one for the FR-S/BRZ or really any lux car, for examples.

My shift knob comes from a M45 auto. m45 shift knob infiniti automatic in eBay Motors | eBay

There are also visible paddle shifters. It is clearly an automatic. Nothing to hide here.

Honestly, I'd be happier with a bezel that preserves the P-R-N-D, but the G37 one won't fit, and the gear one is in is plainly displayed on the dash.

The boot just looks much, much nicer.

Why swap out the 370Z start button for the red GT-R one -- it looks nicer.

Here's some (crappy) pics of mine

did you have problems fitting that M45 auto knob on the z? also is it using a clip at the bottom to hold it in place? or is the boot just covering it?
