Spoon duracon stays nice and cool but it's not exactly the look you're going for but personally I prefer it over the skunk2, I've had both.

i'm not a fan of those metal ones anyways,
they look nice,
but along with the heat,
they feel wierd.
aren't ergonomic at all

the shape of the stock **** is perfect,
it gets pointy in front, so when pulling it back you have something to grip,
and its round on the back so you can just shove it forward.

OEM wrx ***** are the same shape, but wrapped in leather,
I'd be down for one of those!
either that or have the stocker leather wrapped??

For now i'm just gona rock my stock ****, with short shifter and prothane bushings.
