Shift knob stains
Hi, just to find out if any of you guys have trouble with the appearance of the stock shift knob on the 00 model. My has developed stains and scratches, thought of using things like Braso (but its kinda a abrassive) .......... any recommendations ? Thanks in advance

I have the aluminum knob, and it's so FUBARR on the right side with chips and scratches, I've given up. I'll be replacing it whenever I have $100 +/- that I won't miss.

I use Mother's Mag and Aluminum Metal polish on my Tag Heuer stainless steel watch (polished in the middle, satin on the sides). It works good on that. I assume it would be good on the knob.

The stock shift knob is anodised so be careful what you polish it with. Things like Autosol or Goddard's Glow are great on Aluminium (mag) wheels etc. I'd try it on a test area first before polishing an anodised knob with it.
