Coincidentally, that was my 30th birthday present to myself.

Did yours cause issues with the reverse lockout or have they fixed that?

If I tightened mine the whole way down I couldn't get into reverse. They sent a jamb nut to remedy this but it made the knob sit way up and expose the white plastic collar on the threads. I ended up just keeping it one full turn up from tight and added some medium loctite to the threads.

I took a small piece of plastic from a ballpoint pen and placed it atop the shifter threads to give me extra height. You could potentially use a set screw inside the shift knob, but this was free and fixed it for me.

It's the silver piece painted satin black. The trim piece can't be purchased separately from the buttons. Personally I was not looking to spend ~$170 just to have it black.
