No flaming...goes with the nail polish in the first photo very nicely, and fashion coordination is important!

I just hated the stock aluminum shift knob, it just looks and feels so cheap, and I cant justify spending $250+ on a brabus shift knob or any other brand (unless it was a Tommy kaira and my car was manual) but i like.

If the silver shift knob is cheap, then your shift knob wont even consider as a garabge.

wow...ok... learn some ****ing english or grammar if your going to try and insult me, I wasn't in anyway rude to you but if you wanna start this insulting game, fine by me...

also if you wanna get technical... my shift knob weighs .38kgs just a short of one pound, current price for a pound of titanium is roughly $16-$18 in powder or actual solidified form. aluminum (if the stock one even is aluminum, feels like plastic) current price per pound is $0.55-$0.75, and the stock shifter is nowhere near a pound, so you use that intelligent brain of yours and realize that; my shift knob would be worth a little more as you say "garabge".

...ummm............what? It is mind blowing to me you can even afford to own a mercedes because you show no signs of intelligence. Im trying VERY hard to interpret what you are saying. I guess not everyone payed attention in English/grammar class? your little "insults" make no sense, obviously i like it so how could you say I don't? lmfao, like seriously? thats the best you could come up with....? I didn't take any offense to your first remark, I actually replied nicely, then YOU added flame to gas with your dumbass remark. idc if someone doesn't like my modifications, most don't, but I still share them. idk if you thought you were being "cool" or "funny" with your remarks but you just made yourself look like a ****ing idiot. YOUR the reason MB drivers have a reputation for being D-bags. I guess I made myself look like a hypocrite when saying "flame on" in my post but I guess I just cant stand ignorant people.

It looks okay but like you said, it looks better than that cheapo plastic shifter.

Don't mind that other guy. Sounds like a downer.

Keep modding

I think it's forums in general unfortunately. They're a place for little people to act big.

So, my detailing OCD kicked in while checking out your pics - grab one of the super soft keyboard dusters and keep it in your door pocket, one or two swipes and all that dust that loves to stick to our dashes disappears...

yeaa bmw drivers have a pretty bad rep but you can get it just as bad being an mb driver, it seems that people on motorcycle forums hate MB drivers more than BMW drivers, idk why?

I actually use to have one of those dusters, it just got thrown away recently.
