Default Spoon *****

i'm debating on wether or not to get a Spoon shift ****. My only concern is, i had a ctr knock off and the treads kept on stripping, so the lettering woudlnt be straight, due to the **** not screwing on straight. Does this happen with SPOON shift *****? or does it sit still for good? Also, how durable are those stickers? do they peel off easily? and lastly, where is a good priced and reliable place to get a SPOON shift ****?

was worth the money from me
i was tired of how hot my ctr crappy replica one got
so i opted for the spoon one because its made of plastic
it does get a bit warm, but certainly not as hot as the ctr replica one

the set screw works well
doesnt slip at all, as long as you tighten it down enough
just be careful not to strip it

I don't know why everyone's pissing and moaning

MOMO one's are a lot more than that.

It won't damage it, but when I was having some exhaust work done the mechanic thought it would be a good idea to twist the **** tighter. So when I took it off there was a nice groove around the entire shifter.

what do you mean nice groove around the shifter? like as in the alan screw put a groove in it? if so correct me if i'm wront, but it wont have any effect on the shifter or putting the stock **** on? i just dont want to damage my oem stuff just for a shift ****.
