TRANSLUCENT FINISH
The translucent finish is achieved thru a meticulous powder coating process which includes multiple stages of careful hand work. The shift knobs are brush finished by hand to create a consistent radial grain. To achieve the translucent effect, we apply a coat of electrostatically charged clear powder that is tinted to our desired color. Then the shift knob is precisely baked at a specific temperature to create a super smooth, durable and translucent finish!
SHIFT GATE ENGRAVING
With or without? All depends on your personal preference. Our signature shift gate engraving was designed to be graphically clean while giving your shift knob a unique aesthetic.
The engraving is cnc machined into the shift knob using a small .0625" solid carbide ball end mill.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
With the weight in all the right places, Contour redefines your shifting experience through the look and feel of how you shift into gear. You will experience smoother and faster shifts!
How? Weight in motion directly relates to how an object will react to an opposing force. In this case, the opposing force is the gate pattern and counter springs that are connected to your shift arm that tell you the shift pattern of your car. The difference felt when shifting into the next gear requires far less effort due to the additional momentum created by the increased mass.
HOW DOES IT FIT MY CAR?
We take fitment seriously. The Contour comes with a precision cnc machined adapter that will fit your car's threaded shifter arm with OEM fit and finish. The adapter requires simple steps to install and allows you to adjust the shift gate engraving orientation with ease.
We specifically designed the Contour to fit small to large size hands. The 2" or 51mm sphere diameter will fit smaller size hands while still providing a weighted shifting experience.

Shifting Positions
The Contour was designed for multiple shifting positions including side arm, angled overhand and overhand shifting positions. The sphere shape makes for a comfortable side arm and angled overhand shifting position. The overhand shifting position is further enhanced with the undercut sphere shape which provides a firm location for your index and middle finger to grip.
Design Driven
We believe in the power of the design process to create incredible products. Every shift knob start it's life as an idea that is translated into countless ideation sketches where form and details evolve. We take those sketches and further develop them in solid modeling software to define the form and ergonomics of the shift knob. The goal of this process is to perfect the balance between form and function to create an unparallelled product and brand experience.
Crafted By Us
For the integrity and craftsmanship of our products, we do our manufacturing in house. We are proud to get our hands dirty crafting the very products we create.
