Shift knob for a 2011 335xi automatic

Yes, I know, automatic??, Xdrive ??, not the best combination for performance, I have owned 5 BMWs all manual, all rear wheel drive.
Long story but the deal on this 2011 335xi Msport, performance edition, was too good to pass.
I do not like the shift/knob/handle with that rather large brushed chrome insert. Any ideas ??
Thank you CD

cdea3: I put the msport knob on my auto. The leather feels much better than the alum insert.

gtabfknkdnme: I have a LCI auto knob if you are interested in purchasing it.

It doesnt look bad if you had one of these buttons on the shift knob!

I saw this guy who had it and it was cool!

Get the BMW Performance one. It's a little pricey for just a shift knob but it looks fantastic. I'd suggest the BMW Performance handbrake to go with it.
