    @harryberry474 Před 3 lety

    Ok, I just bought 2 sets from different seller one Black set and one Silver 13.80 ea. Figured $28 total so inexpensive not much to loose if there's a fitment issue.
    These are made from aluminum (I'm guessing) and will absorb heat/cold I'm going to apply Grip Tape for Guns GT-5000, you can find it on amazon. This tape is remarkable it sticks and lasts, I have it on a titanium knife handle and it hasn't peeled in the slightest with a lot of in & out of my pocket use. It's very thin and will only enhance these paddle shifters, won't be so cold to the touch and have a nice tactile feel. It's kind of a rubber pebble finish feel but not sticky at all and will work great in this application...just cut to shape and apply and enjoy.

    • @netcruzer
      @netcruzer  Před 3 lety

      I was concerned about temps too, but you don’t hold them long enough to matter. Also Usually fire off shifts from the top cut out area the surface contact on skin is so minimal you don’t feel the temp. I like these paddles a lot.

    Thanks for making this video! Is the shifting experience more satisfying from a feel and sound perspective when compared to the OEM shifters? Do they sound metallic like some higher end cars with their stock paddles do?

    • @netcruzer
      @netcruzer  Před 4 lety

      Much more satisfying, and the metal feel is very nice. I also like the cut outs I usually use them from the lower edge cut. Feels great.

      I mean, it's not only the brand name. The Chinese company blaitently stole the entire design from the original maker, but the research & development of this paddle is not worth a $200 mark-up. I know. I am only a 3D design/modeling hobbyist and I could come up with the same thing in a day, easily.

Whereas the cheaper ones had a next to perfect fit. I personally would be pissed after paying 225$ for poorly researched an developed garbage. But I totally understand your point that people need to consider the work that gets put into it.
