Type R gear knobs

I've heard that the only way that you can buy them through Honda is if you can prove you have a Type R. Anyone know if this is true?

Anyone know how much they are worth?

I've heard that story too - not too sure about it though. I wonder if my brother can get one for you even though his Type-R was stolen and written off. I'll check if you want.

Price? You know that pound of flesh closest to your heart... :p

Even the wreckers expect a fistfull of cash and a pile of dirty magazines for 'Type R' badges etc.:rolleyes:

Whats the deal?why can't I do up the diesel without breaking the bank?:cool:

Racing spec site below sells for $93.50 same price for Mugen.

otherwise, you could always attempt to steal one at the motorshow ;)

Are they real ones though or copies?

don't know..

The red "H" badges are fakes - they are the same as the white one on the front of my car. My guess is that they are rip offs - still, if they look good... :)

i heard that a real Type R knob from honda is about $500nz

remember how Oz mentioned that AutoJoy shop in Castle Hill...I had a squiz the other day...and yeah....

RICE SHOP :hehehe:

Must be a good season for rice this year - can't escape it :p

shop consisted of stickers and neon stuff LOL :p

apart from a few meguires products but that was about it...

oh wait...did I mention the altezzas :p

/puts on MC Hammer pants and does the Hammer dance

*Rice Rice baybeee* :D

I saw it sell at SRS in the city..for yeah about 100 bucks..

Poor U :p

Don't feel sorry for me about that. Feel sorry for me because I just had to spend 7 hours on the net doing my FUCKING Software Assignment which is now printing. It turned out to be 18 pages, and that's not the worst part! No Asia/Pacific AFers were onnline the WHOLE TIME. And now you're here, I have to log off. grrrrrrrrrr. OK. Finished rant. How are you?

awww....poor thing :p

gee...everyone is bitching to me about their assignments. I"m ok...have been sick, but feeling better.

Just finished marking over 200 year 10 papers - you think you guys have it bad writing the shit, at least you don't have to read it.

:(

Other than that, the day could have been better - I just have to stop over-analyzing :bloated:

Ahhh Uni. Glad that sh#t is over.

Update: Speaking to a guy with a JDM ITR at a servo today who said he worked for Peter Warren Honda. He reckons they are $60 new from Honda. I thought they were dearer than that. I offered him $50 to unscrew his right there and then but he wouldn't be in it.

I just finished working 84 hours this week so when I recover (Wednesday :D ) I'll go to Peter Warren parts and find out.

Stay tuned!!!!!!!!!!
