Lookin really good. Must be much easier to change the gears with the wheel turned. That always bugged me about the paddles.

I need some Primetime paddles for my V. It just has these little buttons. #bum****

Matt, thanks man! Good talking with you today... Like I said if you need anything with the car let me know...

MOFSTEEL, Thanks... Are they for everyone? No! I think they actually look right at place in the car... I made these for myself and thought I would help out others interested... If I sell 14 sets(already did!) or 50 sets I could care less... They pretty much caused me to quit/got me banned from AZ so I'm a little testy about them... How would you improve them? I'm open to suggestions as well as criticism...

Matt, Thanks bud! Saw your post over there and appreciate it... Little bummed about AZ, I learned alot over there and interacted with some good people like yourself, but I have to take some pride in my actions after what they did... My wife told me to write a check and become a vendor... LOL... I'll post over here just not as much traffic... Happy with the dyno's and need to get the CPS installed... I'll make paddles for your car if you want? Need detailed pics and measurements... If you still want to do a strip day I'm game... If APR launches switching soon I would probably even head out your way... Maybe we could get Richi to join us...

PT - that whole AZ thing is kinda weird. I mean it's typical AZ stuff to get uber-protective of the cashflow, and disregard the guys who MAKE the site (the users) but the guy you called out (Alex @ EuroPrice) insists that

a) he doesn't sell paddles
b) he doesn't even know anything about this whole situation

May want to clarify things (or call him out if he's full of ****)

I say if you go down, go down in a blaze of glory lol.

Anyway, don't EVER think these guys don't appreciate you. Site ownership? that's another matter entirely. They don't seem to get a really good feeling of who the influential folks are at times, but again the members ****ing love you and all the info you help share.

As for the paddles, they look pretty cool. I'm stunned that the tape holds them on. Then again, that's not just 'tape'. Great idea. I have a couple of friends who have DSG B8 S4s so I'll ask them if they're interested in case you get motivated to produce another batch.

Yes, they aren't for me but I can see why there is a market for them.
Anything that gets you banned from AZ gets my approval anyway.

Ya & it kinda sucks that they locked/closed down the thread. Wish everyone could have discussed it in the open.

Anyway, Ron glad you still plan on posting here. We all appreciate your contributions.
