WTB: WEIGHTED shift knob.
 
WTB: Weighted shift knob.

I currently have a Flossy Heavyweight GripTape Shorty, but unfortunately the coating has chipped on the top (because of my ring) and is starting to come off. I'm a bit of a perfectionist, so this is driving me nuts and I want to change it.

I am looking for a HEAVY, WEIGHTED shift-knob; nothing lightweight or Delrin please. I like the feel and weight of the Flossy, so I'm ideally looking for something in that weight category ie: Raceseng Ashiko or Slammer, Moddictions, even another Flossy etc. etc. My current shift knob is 500 grams, just to give you an idea.

As for colour, I would prefer NO RED, as I have a lot of red accents already in my interior that would clash. Ideal would be blue, white, titanium/neochrome, black etc. but I'm open to offers. I would prefer a "crinkle" finish like I have now, but again I can't be too picky, so I'm open on this as well.

Ideally under $100.

I am not in a rush, as the Flossy functions just fine for now.

My Flossy will also be for sale at a discount (because of the damage) once I get something to replace it, but I'll make a separate thread for that with pictures.

I'm open to trades or partial trades as well if anyone is interested in the Flossy. Please message me for pictures, as the screen on my phone broke today and it is currently useless.

Thanks for looking!

Shame you're not in the U.S. I have a like-new Ashiko (brushed aluminum) that I'm about to post for about that price. Then again, Trump would be your president, so you're better off up north until the impeachment. GLWS/T.

Just shoot him a decent offer. Give your Northern neighbour a fair shot at a sweet deal. You guys are already fucking us on soft wood and dairy :lol:

I know right... wtf? Start a trade war on wood with Canada of all places? Yep, we got leverage there... master negotiator this dude is. Might as go 100% batshit and raise import tarrifs on poutine, hockey sticks, and THESE wonderful contributions to mankind while he's at it. #Godzillamuthafukinfacepalm.

I have a raceseng signature knob with a black cover if interested. $88 USD and whatever the cost of shipping is

SLVRSRFR 04-29-2017 10:12 AM

I'm hoping to stay local at the moment, to avoid the shipping costs and wait time.

But I will keep you in mind.

Thanks!

Another possible option would be to have your current one re-coated. Look up stripping technologies on FB and shoot them a message to see if they can do anything for you.

Interesting idea. I'll look into it!

Stripping Technologies...I like the sounds of that! :D

Are you the one with the Anvil?

Sorry I didn't reply; you mentioned yours was chipping too. Not really looking to replace my chipped one with another chipped one...kinda defeats the purpose lol. It also looks EXACTLY like my current one, and I was hoping to switch up the colour/style a bit for the next one.

I appreciate the offer though!

Well in case you're still a little interested , here's the pics of the "chips".

The rest of the shiftknob has no blemishes of any kind.
