Also, if your hand is resting on the shifter and you aren't keeping 2 hands on the wheel at all times when not shifting, you're wrong anyway :-p

Haha pretty sure 2 aren't needed at red lights or sitting in traffic.

Its most likely dust, dirt or debris in the air, it gets caught under your hand, without you realizing it, and as your using the knob, you scratch it.. The dust will actually cause it..

Ever wonder how your CDs get scratched inside your CD player, its the dust that gets inside the radio, and it gets on the rollers that slide your cd player into place.. causing hair line scratches. Its true. I learned about it when I worked at Best Buy.

I really do like that TK knob though. It's heavy and I don't miss gears when I shift quickly anymore.

Missing gears is a driver error not a shift knob error lol

Did I ever say it was the shift knob's fault? The little carbon "stick" nismo knob was light and made it easy for me to miss when shifting rapidly because I have big hands and the cylindrical shape made it hard for me to get a good grip on it leading to misses now and then esp in the middle of the gearbox.

The new knob is heavier and fits in the palm of my hand which makes my life easier.

lol just busting balls here dm, it's a fair assumption to make if you claim you are no longer missing gears due to your new knob

easy on the trans, slamming gear is not healthy!
