Default Type R shift ****?

I'm looking for a REALLY GOOD quality replica of this ****,


anyone have any ideas where to purchase one? All of the ones I've seen on e-bay are crap, and look nothing like the genuine one. I don't feel like paying 180 for a piece of metal.

The S2 **** is Not solid Titanium like the type r, not that it really matters.

there is a s2k titanium shift ****, but it is a factory option and cost a lot. i just ordered a used jdm type r shift **** from a guy in canada, and he has been lagging on it. i only paid 50 shipped, and hopefully it comes through.

well my shift **** is quite crooked... i mean.. everytime i screw it on.. the gears mounted on top of the **** would be out of place... so i made the mistake of aligning it and use super glue or something like that... now the problem is.... since I did that.. how can i put a new boot?

and by the way, anyone that says their fakie looks likea real one has never seen a real one. fake ones have the red bleeding all over the grooves of the number pattern. i will find the pic of mine soon. the paint is perfectly applied (not by poor vietnamese worker in a factory... by a machine)
