Shift **** On 5AT

I've Googled, used the search feature AND RTFM (although it wasn't necessary I know someone will tell me to do it)...and still have a shift **** issue. I have a disgustingly large scratch in the aluminum part of my 5AT shift ****. Some people have said "sand it out" but that seems rather...I dunno, dumb? So I'm thinking I'm just gonna replace the ****, I have an old one from Auto Zone that I got, but it didn't fit (gave it to my buddy for his Pontiac G6 lol)...any ideas where to pick one up? Would Nismo maybe have one for the AT? I could always go the dealer route but I don't think they like me too much....any advice is much appreciated! Thanks in advance!

The little clip that holds the **** on didn't go on the new shift **** : / So an M45 replacement one should work?

u gotta pull the shiftboot straight down....which will expose the clip....pull the clip out (with pliers if u can't do it by hand)....then pull the **** straight up after the clip has been removed....replace with M ****...and put the clip back in, and push the shiftboot back up

Switched my shift know with one from the M45. Purchased it from Rick from Riverside Infiniti (awesome deal).

Just wanted to share my photo in case someone wanted to see how this **** looks.

Might try to make the **** shorter, but I don't want to F it up....
