Default 5 speed short throw shifters

Im wondering what short throw shifter would be best for my 03 GT, I have a Tremec TR3650 5 speed. I would like something that looks as good as it preforms

How much is that Tri-Ax? I have a short throw shifter in mind and whatever brand it is, it sucks.

Do all short throw shifters feel horrible when you have your hand on the ****? Like.. mine feels like metal and clingy grinding that I can feel through the ****...

You are obviously going to be recommend all kinds of brands but the 3 main ones seem to be MGW, tri-ax, and Pro 5.0. MGW is one of the best, I've read many people switching from the triax to the MGW. I have the MGW myself and quite honestly couldn't be happer. It makes the stock shifter feel like ****ing **** to be honest.
