Default Short Throw Shiter For GSR

I was thinking of going with Skunk 2 or B&M's Dual Bend Short throw, Which one would you think is better? And should I get a bushing kit also?

personally i have the B&M dual bend, yes just spend the extra 10-20 bux shipped to get some polyurethane bushings for the shift linkage, also, note: When i put my short shifter in with the stock GSR black boot, it kinda pulled tight on the boot when i was in 1,3,5 gears i noticed. I kinda didn't like that... but i bought an authentic Civic Type R boot with red stitching from a friend and because that boot fits more onto a square frame it solved the problem, no more stretched out boot, So get a civic shift boot to solve that if you get that problem, note mine came off a ek

I have been running a skunk2 short shifter for almost 5 years now in combination with the sk2 weighted shift ****. It has been great for me. Some people will let you know that the polyurethane bushings will go to hell in a few years but I like the feel.

I bought my car (not the one in my sig for sale) with a no-name short shifter. Looks as though the bushing are original. Have not had any issues with it in the 15k miles I've put on it.
