What material do you prefer for a shift knob: leather or alcantara?
pro and cons for each?

Delrin.

I'd rather go for alcantara because IMO it looks nicer and doesn't need fifteen thousand bullshit electronic assists to make it bearable.
Leather is hot in summer, cold in winter and slippery but attracts more pussy.
Alcantara on the other hand though is probably much harder to clean if you give your girlfriend a fisher.

>confirmed for never having a car with Alcantara
It's shit. It's a terrible fabric that is bordering on meme status. Hard to clean, and even when clean it still looks dirty.

Yeah I never had a car with alcantara, only cloth and velour (which is btw the most shit of all), but I just think it look nice. But it's good to hear that it's a pain in the ass, I'll avoid it and stick to cloth. Thanks, anon.
I use a Flossy grip rod:

KEK I remember that thread

I like metal, like titanium. Or maybe stainless steel.
>b-but it gets blazing hot in the sun!
dont be a pussy
>b-but it gets really cold in the winter!
again, dont be a pussy, maybe wear gloves.
there is no better feeling than placing your bare hand over a hot metal shift knob, bitting your lip, and telling your car who's the fucking boss.

Wood is the only correct answer.

This. Delrin/duracon/plastic FTW. Have the Spoon duracon knob in my S2Gay.

unsealed wood is perfect
i took a beer tap from work because i had the idea to use it as a shift knob and it came out great. never seen anybody do it, and i like my car to be unique (like me), and one that i know i built myself and can really call my own.
