Custom Co-polymer Shift knobs - Made in Jersey by skilled machininsts!!!
#18
Sizes between 2.1-2.25" size is an extra $3.00 due to larger material required.
Grooves are an extra $5.00 because it takes another setup to do the grooving after making the knob round. Grooves can be added any place around the circumference of the sphere, in any combination of size and quantity. I can do deep wide grooves (about the width of 2 pennies), or narrow shallow grooves (about thickness of a dime). They help to increase grip when grooves are placed around the bottom half of the knob, and is best when the top of the knob is left smooth for your palm to rest comfortably.
Final price: $87.00 USD shipped for a 2.25" grooved copolymer Evo knob. That is for the 5 or 6 speed, in black color. (purchased through EvoBrakes.)

just got my black 5sp knob. at first i wasnt sure about it, but when i installed it i loved it. matches the interior very well. its larger and heavier than the blue aluminum knob that came with my evo.
by the way, crazy fast turnaround time. i ordered mine 3 or 4 days ago
edit: having driven a decent amount now, i love it. maybe its a reach, but i feel like my shifts are smoother. my girl even noticed it when she drove

How do they hold up after time? I'd like to see a pic of a well used one. I really like how the black ones look with the Evo interior. But if I'm going to drop $80 on a shift knob, I want to make sure it stays looking good for a good amount of time.

Typical cleaning can be done using a dab of acetone on a rag, which will wipe off any grime or grease that may buildup if you don't wash your hands often I use acetone to clean them before shipping to remove any machining oil and it works just fine. Also, the black does not fade in the sunlight.

I do not know the stock knob weight, but mine weighs 105 grams.
I have none of those pics right now, but picture the knob sitting down flush with the top of the boot for a clean look.
