i was just curious, and dont mean to steal the thread, but does the JDM type r knob sit any lower than the stock knob?

Sits at the same height.

The finish will scratch if you are clumsy or careless with your jewelry. I wear a ring every day and have yet to scratch it.

FYI, this is a stock shift know for the CTR and ITR and will work with the S. It is Aluminum and not Titanium.

I like the CR knob

Kinda like the AP1 knob, but it's heavier and makes the shifts nicer.

I had a CR one for a day and got rid of it. Round ones don't fit in my hand very well -- they feel clumsy and awkward.

The stock "egg" shape seems to be best IMO.

I got the JDM Type R Shift Know but the round one like the CR. I love it. It feels way better than the original. It all depends on how comfortable it is for you.
