Go with TWM. I got the stage 2 short throw with a twm classic satin ****. Nice and heavy, super short throws, and the satin colkor matches the interior color perfectly.

Ergonomics first, appearance a distant second. Everyone has their own preference for skiftknob shape/size/weight. I couldn't find anything that fit all three to my liking, so I made my own.

They look exactly the same as manual *****, only they're threaded for auto. If you're not doing a boot conversion, I make the base of the **** more tapered, so it flows better.
