Not perfect, but I wasn't expecting perfection. Gives it some character. Pretty good considering I've never done anything like this before and it's from freaking pull a part.

That actually looks pretty damn sweet! And you finished it yourself, nice.

Yep. Probably not the greatest job, but hey, it's not too bad. It now needs some rubber or something to go in the space between the wood and the metal lip. I think it used to have something but it was cracked and dried up when I got it.

The knob is AWESOME! Great job. But i thought it was for a manual shifter like the Porsche Carrera GT

It used to be on a manual shifter on a Jeep Cherokee lol. But I decided I wanted it for my car for no particular reason. I wish my car was a manual, if that counts, ha.

Here's an idea for a knob. I think it looks pretty cool. My Friend made one that looked a lot like this except he used walnut, maple, cherry, maple, walnut.

You can fix that. It's actually not a particularly hard or expensive swap on that car.
