Default .2 GT3 different paddle shifters

Just a FYI for any .2 GT3 owners out there that intend to install paddle extenders on their cars. The .2's have a different style paddle and my old MAcarbon extenders don't fit on the new style. If anyone knows of any that fit the new style please let me know since I like the look and feel of a longer paddle.

Just seen that Agency Power offers a carbon fiber paddle extension for the second generation paddle shifters.

Are there actual replacement paddles available or just the stick-on ones?

Are you seeking an aftermarket part? If so, there's only one option currently:

It's incredibly pricey and not worth it imo. Looks nice but the OEM paddles on the .2 feels amazing in comparison to the .1 paddles. But I suppose if you've got a hole burning in your wallet and really like carbon fiber then these are the paddles for you.

I contacted MAcarbon yesterday about CF inside door handles to replace the ugly silver ones. He thinks he has some but will get back to me today

I just hate silver/aluminum trim to be honest. They stick out like a sore thumb in an otherwise beautiful interior. I'm just a glutton for carbon fiber.

Then those paddles are just for you!

I honestly like the paddles in either CF/aluminium. I opted to have my 991.2 steering wheel with silver trim rather than black because I like the contrast more. These would look pretty menacing on a black steering wheel, and indeed all wheels - but I just can't justify the price. Almost $1100 USD for a set of carbon fiber paddles is just excessive.

I did not look at the price. And now I do not want them haha. Man... $1100??? No thanks. Must be a combination of being a European company and no economies of scale/low production.
