Thanks for all the suggestions guys, but I'm a cheap B@$TARD! I want to spend tops $40 on a decent shift ****. Shokan sells used OEM ones for $35.00, and frankly, I like the shape and look of the oem one. I called Shokan today and they only have a black 5sp one. My boot is dark blue which is the same as the rest of my interior and I think a black shift ****/ blue boot combo would look fugly. The girl at Shokan stated that she thinks all oem shift ***** came in black regardless of the color but I don't think Audi made this mistake. Could you guys confirm please? Thanks.

Mines black w/dark blue interior - its an auto though.

On my Santorin Blue A4, the interior seats are a tan color but the console and interior panels are a dark blue color and so is my shift boot.
I would go tan for the ****... you could actually go just about any color with tan seats, even leather.

This ones cool in bronze:

My interior is "Anthracite", sorta looks bluish in the right light, is that what you guys are talkin about? I don't have cow *** seats though, so the whole interior is the same color, but in any event i had a black leather boot and shift **** and it looked ok..
