I really don't think you'll have issues if you have the whole back of the OE paddle covered in 3M...that stuff is crazy strong.

Unless maybe you're always applying all pressure at the very top of the new paddle, but even then. Will let you guys be the guinea pigs.

I was just thinking the leverage angle pressing at the very top over and over. Who knows until someone gets it on there though. There may be enough surface are touching between that its a total non-issue.

I still think $100 is a bit much for 2 machined pieces of metal. At $50-60 I would jump.

Just fYI $99 but they dont look all that bad and come in a few colors

Unfortunately thy are double side tape on, and look like the ebay ones but $40 cheaper too.
I like the length, shape and finish. I like that you can get different colors. But I want an entire switch and not just a stick on extension. I don't like that you can clearly see the stock paddle with the extension wrapped around it. Kind of cheap looking IMHO.
That said, if you're looking for just appearance and not worried about function They're not bad.

I agree. I think if you got black it wouldn't be so obvious in person vs a pic; but hey it's better than anything else on the market which is notta still.

Or you can upgrade to the real carbon fiber extension for $189 and adhere it with double-sided tape. :doh:

I think if I went with the CJPP ones I'd pull my wheel again and drill the paddles and screw them into the stock ones.

Absolutely, I was thinking the same thing.

Pics when they arrive. If nothing else shows by spring I may get the red ones to match my redline interior. But I may pull the wheel and drill/tap and screw them into place.

I'm gonna try tape + zip-ties-->:shrug:

Screws/bolts would probably be the best method.

Those look like the same cheese-ball ones from fleabay someone mentioned earlier in the this thread. I would rather have an actual replacement...

I agree on actual replacements but I've waited WAY to long + I don't think they look all that bad, should be barely noticeable in Black.
