I have the perforated OEM (IS-F) shift ****, but am considering switching to F-Sport since I have a CF overlay now. I'm going to check out the F-Sport in person before changing it up though. I like the shape the OEM **** better, but the CF and blue stitching on the F-Sport are nice too.

If you have the red wood trim, I say go with OEM perforated. It works especially well with the perforated leather seats - nice flow. If you plan on getting a CF overlay, you can consider jumping to F-Sport now. IMO.

My interior is the redwood trim kit too, so I think the F-Sport **** may be too contrasting with the blue thread. If someone has this interior, please post pics of the **** on your trim! I would like to keep the interior simple and conservative.

F-Sport **** + cf overlay!

If not, just get the perforated one.

If I had a manual I would probably keep it OEM or get the F-Sport Manual shifter but that is if my trim were to go with it. Still interested in seeing the F-Sport against Redwood, sorry David I've been hella busy, you studying at Leavey Library today?
