I wanted the aluminum as well and my wife went and bought me the original Ferrari aluminum knob. I accidently saw the bill and fainted: $ 380.00
Check eBay if you want an original one. I have mine still but plan on keeping it just in case. |

I have an old MOMO leather shift knob. It actually added a little height to the shifter. I also like the size, grip and feel. It has no numbers. (I've never been too good with numbers anyway.) |

I just got a polished aluminum ball from George Evans and I LOVE IT!! It looks fantastic! My OEM one was cracked. |

Caribe -
I'll post more about the CF stuff later this week. Let me get some pics of what I have done. I'll put it in a new discussion. Look out for it.

Ben, where did you get the CF components?

Any interest in a Carbon Fiber one?
And then a matching CF shift gate?
That's what I did on my TR...a VERY nice addition, IMHO.
btw, I don't personally care for the numbers on the knobs (ok that is with the CF ones), a cavallino, maybe. On the F50 with a CF knob the numbers are on the outside frame of the gate (not CF tho). And since my gate is now CF all I prefer is the "R" marked, all the other positions should be almost obvious once you know that.

Paul O. -- I definitely liked the 43 mm Ti knob from:
http://www.titaniumcavallino.com/ferrari/
when I lived in a warm climate (CA), but it was too "cold" for CO most of the year. If you want another stock shift knob, I'd just try the usual F discount suppliers (Rutlands, Partsource, etc.). If you do go aftermarket, I'd strongly recommend that you only consider knobs with the proper shift pattern permanently marked on the knob. |
