Installed my new shift knob last week. Same as what I had on my F87. Had IND make it for me.

Looks good. How did you order it? Is it just their standard knob done in carbon fiber and alcantara?

I emailed them and asked them what if this is something they could do. They said they could make it happen. They were extremely helpful and great to work with. I had a few different ways I could configure it. Ultimately, I went with a leather boot vs alcantara and the M colors in a straight stitch.

I went with the same combo. Thank you so much for your post with photos! When I saw it I realized that's what I need. I don't have any CF in the interior yet this knob fits so well into the overall look. I tried the aluminum one first but though I liked the shift feel the look felt off. Also it didn't have any boot attachments which made boot top sliding slightly.

I just ordered the cf f87 knob with the boot attached from ECS (~$300 with shipping). Accurately detached f87 boot from the knob (same for the original one), mated g87 boot with new m performance knob and applied 3m plastic weld to hold it together. Once it dried boot and the knob were inseparable and had that OEM quality look and fitment.
