Any cool ideas for an engraved shift knob? Getting one for my short shifter cause the stock knob broke... I was thinking the bmw propeller symbol with flames. Or maybe a big W haha.. ideas?

I think the only types of flames that look good on a bmw are when they the byproduct of a crash and are actually real. Don't do it.

Keep it classy. Perhaps the outline of the the /// slash marks, or even just the letters "BMW".

Put the M symbol... please don't put the propeller with flames

Flames are kinda gay. haha I like the /// idea

haha true flames are for american cars... I kind of want something unique though... /// is cool but I dont have an M its a 328is and I'm pretty proud of it. maybe "BMW POWER" or "ULTIMATE DRIVING MACHINE" with the shift pattern under... any better ideas?

The ones on the site actually look pretty good. "BMW" along the top with the pattern below might be kinda neat, but really its up to you.
