Nice that is a really nice shift ****...not too flashy and really does the trick
How well does that match up with the cream white interior?

Thanks! Wanted something a bit different than what most others have.
No clue as to the color match. As I said, still waiting for my car, and quite impatiently naturally.
Dare I say, I think it should be a virtual perfect match to the cream line interior.

Yeah if that is a really close match to the cream line I may have to consider it

Yeah, either pepper white, or cream line interior and I think it would look like it came from the factory!
I'll post more pics once I actually get my car and put it on.

That looks just like the standard ****, only with red letters and lines.
I much prefer both the look and feel of my Whalen ****.

That is pretty cool. I like the look, but the stock **** is a bit too big for me. I have small hands and like a very small feeling shift ****.

It looks at though you just put a red film over the stock shift **** and it would look just like the JCW ****

I have a Gaboon Ebony **** and ebrake handle from Robin and it is, by far, the classiest mod I've made to my Pepper White MCS. Very easy to install. Great vendor.

Anybody make an alcantara/suede ****? I had the "fuzzy ****" in my S4 (stock RS4 ****) and think it would go nice with the JCW wheel/boot/e-brake lever.

I need to go snap a picture, but I got a Whalen 8-ball shift **** to go with my piano black interior (& anthracite headliner). I can't say if it's much different in size from the stock shift ****, but it definitely fits better in the palm of my hand & I have larger hands. Mile after mile, it's my favorite upgrade for the money & it makes me wonder if the fatter JCW steering wheel could offer a similar positive improvement.
