Default Real shift ****?

I saw these on ebay and in the picture they have a box with a legit serial number of a oem shiftknob. But is this real or just fake printed on there to make it seem like a legit ****?

Can't say if it's OEM or not, but for $17 - looks nice.

Fake. Replica of the FD2R (8th generation civic type r) shift ****. Type R only came in 6 speed. Nearly 100% sure, someone correct me if I'm wrong.

After looking into it all over google now, I do see that they come only in 6 speed oem. But do you guys think it'd be a decent ****?

Yeah i know that, but coming from ebay do you think the paint will wear out fast or it not fit at all?

It is fake, the OEM 54102-SMT-E01 is a Japan part number for the S2000 shift ****. The real ones are 6-speed.

Btw I just googled "54102-SMT-E01" and found my answer in seconds.
