Carbon Fiber shift knob

[IdahoKTM]

Is this from MHF lighting? I ordered their matte carbon radio bezel and shifter knob so if this is it I am going to pretty excited.

Did you post up pics and a review of the MHF shifter knob?

The shifter looks really good close to oem the radio bezel is a bit off but still better than the grey sides imo

That would be nice if they made it in blue to match the Lunar accents.

They do Blue Carbon and yellow carbon.

You can message them and request it. I had mine done in alcantara with cf sides, an alcantara shift boot, and oem gray stitching to match. I couldn't find it on their website.

That's definitely the exact build. It could be it.

It looks nice. How do you like it? Is It a pain keeping the alcantara boot clean?

I haven't had it for too long but so far it's been pretty easy. I vacuum it every now and then and clean it with a microfiber cloth carefully. I was worried the Alcantara on the top of the shifter would show signs of wear but it's holding up great. Overall I am happier with it than the stock version.

So I can confirm that’s indeed mine. It also had a small glue spot where the boot meets the bezel when I looked at it this morning.

So the shifter knob piece came in today, CF matches all other pieces from same vendor. Still waiting on one more piece to install them all. Excited View attachment 95763View attachment 95764View attachment 96004View attachment 96002View attachment 96003

This is the ebay special from "jogon" right? How's it holding up? They apparently make a forged carbon option that would match my ebay wheel so might pull the trigger if your is still doing well.

Big thanks to @BlackoutTRX for sending me down this rabbit hole of hell lolol

I have a jogon one and it's decent. Not a perfect fit but you can't really tell unless you get up close to it. I also didn't even use the double sided film on it because it is a nice snug fit.

Is it raised up on the bottom a little (where it gets skinny)?

I didn’t use the double sided film so its just not stuck to that part of the shifter.

Mine is flush and looks brand new still.
I used many of the Jogon pieces but I discard that double sided tape and use 100% silicone glue instead. It'll never come off and feels solid to the touch.
Their carbon fiber is legit

Link to the glue?

Link to the glue?

I used GE clear 100% silicone.
To make sure the piece sticks tight to the shifter while the silicone cures, use a few dabs of superglue on the outsides and middle. That will hold the CF skin without allowing it to loosen and cure with gaps.
Once you apply, press the skin down tight until it sticks for a few seconds. In a few hours the silicone will dry and that shell won't ever come off.
