2006 C55 Birdseye Maple shift knob suggestions
Hi everyone, does anyone have a suggestion on a shift knob that actually goes with the Birdseye Maple interior. The brushed aluminum doesn't go with anything considering that the door handles are shiny chrome look.
Anyone Bueller?

Very nice. I wonder how I can buy those items. I didn't see a shift knob though.
These items look cool though, I wonder how well they match?

if you are going to spend $150 for some crappy shift knob I would suggest you look into Brabus, Carlsson, or something else for a little more. sometimes you will come across good deals on them.

Unfortunately the Carlsson one is only different than the stock one by the emblem in the center of the knob. The Brabus one is ugly in my opinion. Any other suggestions?

i was looking at the mp designs avantgarde in birdseye maple, before that i had been looking at their carbon fiber on carbon fiber model 772 7200, might want to think about carbon fiber for some contrast and on your black on black auto
