That is inside my car. I'm ordering a new Mopure STS with the bling option. It comes with a polished aluminum shift knob and a chrome shaft, I'm putting in an SRT-4 boot. My question is this. What would look the best? Polished knob, black powder coated knob or a white powder coated knob? I'll tally up the votes and get it this Thursday. :P

Wouldnt powdercoat give a rougher texture? Wouldnt Anodizing be a better way to go? Just curious...

With the right powder it's smooth, you can get wrinkle though but typically it's smooth.

Anodized parts seem to fade over time.
