Default Anyone selling a Rob **** II? Or know of a **** similar?

Basically looking for a polished or brushed "ball" style **** that mates up well with a stock shift boot. Can't stand it when the base of a shiftknob doesn't cover the top of the shiftboot, that's what I like best about the Rob **** II.

Pics for views!

Default That's what I have now but all the alcantara is worn off....

I bought the car with it on, not sure how it happened, but it has an OEM RS4 shift boot and **** and the boot is fine but all the ***** alcantara is worn off... so now it's almost like rubber or something.

Default Haha maybe I'm an idiot...

I just figured it was oem since the alcantara matches perfectly and the guy said "RS4 boot and ****"... but maybe that doesn't exist?

Default I mean it could, that would be great if it did...

I would certainly be interested in buying one if so.

Alcantara is pretty cool stuff. Me gusta.

Default Yep, like that. They don't sell them anymore, haven't for a while.

Saw one on Craigslist a while back and should've jumped on it, but didn't because I hadn't bought my car yet... no I'm kicking myself. I guess I'll keep searching.
