Default Another shifter?

Is there any other shifter for the automatic?
That's the one part of the interiour that I don't like.
I was even looking at putting a leather boot on it. But the shifter looks lower that the manual shifter.Probably would be too bulkie.

If I'm going to be buying a new shifter, I want it to look like a manual with the leather boot, and make it so I can change the shifter ball to an aftermarket one. Both of these are poor at best in my opinion.

Default better, but

TCI looks better and is a peformance upgrade which is cool.
But, does it have to come with TCI imprinted on it???

Still need a better one...

A ratchet shifter is not supposed to look like a manual shifter. For that reason I think the TCI is a good buy. It just allows you to manually go through the gears for drag racing and whatnot. I would buy it because it just plain looks better than the stock one and the ability to confidently shift through the gears if you have to is there. With the stock one you get hung up between gears.
