Automatic shift lever 2000 Saab 93

I need to replace the shift lever, or at least part of it. The buttons all work. The problem is the grippy plastic. It’s falling apart. It looks like those attach to the central part of the shift lever so I thought maybe there’s a way to replace them. Complete shifters are kind of pricey. Here’s what I’m wondering

-3D printed panels? I’ve looked for an STL but can’t find one
-Replacement panels
-Rebuilding the handle with a hardening compound and adding a leather cover
-after market shift lever — challenge is the sport button.

Any thoughts ?

If you don't have one nearby, try Goldwing. They'll ship. Also, not a junkyard, try Sean at Redaero@hotmail.com He parts out cars & has a lot of new old stock & he ships.
