Nice! The quality is great on my titanium one.

I will say I had lots of issues working with him last year, though. He was totally backed up with work orders, which messed up his estimates. Normally I'd be ok with that but he had zero communication about it. Then he finally sent me one with the wrong design lasered (he used the shift diagram from an STI which has reverse on the right side, not left) and required that I pay to ship it back to him, and then it was like another month or two for him to correct it and send me the right one.

I still use the knob and really like it, though. He just needs some work on the business side.
