Shift **** options for 2012 R55

I just picked up a low mileage R55. The stock shift **** is not so comfortable. Any recommendations on comfortable replacement *****?

Raceseng is popular. I have a TWM competition shifter. Bascially no matter what **** you get you're going to have to buy a threaded adapter for it. The stock **** just snaps on the shift arm, it isn't threaded. Most companies will sell you a threaded collar that you screw on the shift arm that will be compatible with their ****.

Ahh an adapter. That would open up a world of possibilties. I've been looking only at shifters that fit the stock shaft set up.

I preordered this in red with
partially perforated leather cover
and the 6-speed pattern engraved
on the top.
Should be here in a couple-few weeks.
