I have found someone willing and able to reproduce the gold leaf lettering etc on the 1990 BRG. LE numbered gold leaf gear knob . I am having mine restored at the moment. He is going to build up a computer file of the gear knob lettering etc and then computer cut them in gold on a vinyl backing. If anybody is missing their gear knob, he will be able to apply this to a stock timber momo gear knob , which you then just clear coat yourself.
To get this happening I need a really good photograph of a gear knob in good condition which can be used to form the basis of the computer file for the stencil.
If any owner of a 1990 LE could take a really good photo "" straight on" ( so there is no parallax distortion it would be really helpful!

If anyone is interested in ordering a stencil, let me know. I am not sure of the price yet.

I'm interested pending price! Keep us posted.

I hope this is useful:

I'm up for one.

Can't really help though as this is what a previous owner did to mine...

Thanks...i already had that one but that photo was not taken "square on" if you know what I mean. I need a really square on shot so it can be used to create a gold leaf decal.
Someone out there..help please!!!

Would be interested in one, and might be able to help with a photo, but mine isn't in 100% perfect condition, but might be enough to start the process (assuming he can fill the gaps/voids etc)

PS - have you ask Mazda if they have a stencil or original copy they could provide?

Bump

Did you end up getting this done, I'm very keen on getting this done too. Any details on who did this for you ?

Me too still
