Shift knob alternatives?

Hey guys can you point me to some aftermarket shift knobs you guys are using or recommend? I currently have the zhp one but I was looking to get one more "cool" looking I guess haha and a weighted one is a plus. I know it's more of a JDM thing to get the crazy looking shift knobs not sure if there's any that fit that itch for the euro crowd? Thanks!

I mean I'm not sure if you've already looked at the M Performance shift knob, but that's a viable option. Also reduces throws.

Is it worth the $300 price tag? I do like that it reduces the throw. The throw is slightly too long lol trying to justify spending that money on a shift knob or spend it on other parts

Woah nice never seen these before they are cool. Let me know how it feels!! And for our f22 cars I read that the knob is attached to the boot and not just twist plug and play like other shift knobs. Are you glueing it back on?
