I think the nicest **** for the FC is the leather Mazdaspeed piece. Dimpled on the back. You can't see it in the picture but the word Mazdaspeed is embossed into the leather vertically on the front. It's a nice simple design, very Miataish but not so dainty. It's a direct screw on (at least on my S5 it was) and is weighted.

Did you order the 84-88 shifter or the 89-92? I'm getting one for my '88, just curious if my **** will fit correctly also.
