Oh no worries at all Derrick. Honestly for the price of shipping itll cost ya to replace the knob, shipping them back and forth itll be more than its worth (I believe it cost $20 to ship it up to Canada), so thats $40 back and forth due to some black rubbing through and the line around the centre.
Give you huge props for stepping up to the plate though and offering that, another reason I'll forward other Subaru owners your way for shift knobs!
White definitely is the sexiest color there is though
