My shift **** started shedding the number (4) soon after I got it (I don't wear rings). Well yesterday I was sitting in twenty miles of traffic waiting to cross the Bourne bridge back to the Cape, when for a lack of anything better to do I started picking at the number four and more of it started to come off. Well not to leave a sleeping dog lie, I took a knife out and started to lightly scrape at it, I thought I’d remove all the numbers being I already know where the gears are anyway. After removing the four I noticed the area was much shinier than the rest, I started to scrape other areas and revealed a beautifully polished stainless steel **** under the fake titanium paint, I was going to order a Momo but I think I'll wait.

That's great to hear. The morning after I bought it, I noticed a scratch on the shifter. I was real pissed, but it could have been my fault. The scratch is growing slowly (I don't wear rings either), so I'm glad to hear there is a silver (Stainless) lining.

Thanks

I don't think I'll be that daring!
