Just released, our AMAZING Delrin® Composite Fatboy shift knobs! Produced completely by Grafixpressions and made in Connecticut, USA, these Delrin beauties don't attract the heat and cold like alloy knobs, so they are perfect for summer/winter driving. Machined out of genuine Dupont Delrin thermoplastic -- these knobs are nearly as strong as steel, you have to hold one to appreciate it!

The best part is, these babies are super affordable at $65 shipped, can't beat that with a stick. We know our customers love the Fatboy knobs, but our metal versions can run upwards to $100, we wanted to offer something just as great, but also affordable to the masses. We've done a limited run of only 10 knobs in Honda fitment, and another 10 in M10x1.25 fitment, if you want one -- act quick because they'll be gone soon. We will be making more, but it could be a few months before our next batch.



We also put together a technical drawing with dimensions of our Fatboy knobs, as a bunch of customers have asked for more details on these shift knobs, as well as how countersunk they truly are!

do you have any pics on how it looks on a stock shift assembly without the nut in a 8thcivic? also does the matte get hot in summer?
Matte Black, or black color in general, will generate more heat than any other color. But then again, these knobs are made of a composite material so they won't be as a hot as a black metal (higher conductivity) shift knob.

Should have made a metal insert for it to screw into. Doesnt matter how durable delrin is, it is going to wear out from the continuous pressure against the threads from shifting
we've had one in a test car for ~ 6 months, there are no issues with the threads ever wearing out. If that ever happens, we would warrantee the knob.
