Got my new CF shift knob with custom leather with red stitching boot, but the base of the boot is wrong!
Now need to find a good upholstery shop to swap the boots.

Wouldn't it have been easier to send it to me? The keyless go ones are hard to find at a reasonable price. I may just get mine wrapped to get rid of the wood on it that I've plasti dipped on the rest of the interior. Car is coming along very well Ronnie.

I don't think this style of shift knob will fit E55...not sure though.
I'm putting the stock shift knob for sale pretty soon.

Is that a Mansory kit on the Cayenne? Whatever it is, the company squared off the front end and destroyed the car's lines.
