hahaha
the absurdly expensive and probably useless Techart part...I couldn’t help it, I knew it was probably no bang for the buck, and would be like a sail aerodynamically....but I just wanted it lol 😂
heck if nothing else I can probably use it to scoop up medium sized birds to eat in a Zombie Apocalypse situation lol
it does act like a megaphone shooting the sweet symphony of the big turbo whine back forward into the cabin when the roof is down though, so that’s almost worth the price of admission haha

okay, you guys caught me...the scoop is actually a built in fifth seat for my adventurous little 8 month old.
Same conversation had every Saturday morning as me and the little ones head out to Cars and Coffee and our Saturday morning drive:
Wife: “Don’t drive fast with the kids in the car.”
Me: “Yes Dear”
My 7 year old son as we leave the driveway: “Can we Launch Control Dad!?!”
Me: “Oh yes dear” muahahaha
The baby girl: “hehehehe”
If nothing else the scoop can catch the baby if she flies out on a hard pull 🤷🏻♂️

I splurged, took advantage of some Covid 19 pricing, and went Classic on the Roley this year.
I have a 7 year old boy, figured if I got it now he’d see me wearing it most of his aware life and then when “Dad’s Gold Watch” gets passed to him it will mean something to him.
I always bought these things gently used to get better pricing...but this one is a 2020 bought new with my name on the card fir family provenance...hoping it will get passed to my son’s son and so on.

Finally found the time to put the winters on...
Followed Randy's correct change procedure, but I still used a second body...

Added some "Chi-Carbon" (T-Carbon brand) paddle shifter extenders...
Love the look and hope they hold just fine. Ties in nicely with the carbon trim and makes the older sport wheel look a bit better.
$92 off of Alibaba. I see they can also be found on ebay now for a little over $100. Some crazy places are trying to sell them for $300. At $100, why not.

Clever.
Now you can always reach the shifter in a turn, with your pinky...

Been thinking about those for a while now. Friend had a set on his GT3RS. Looks nice.

I ordered these for $250 but haven’t recieved them so I can’t comment on them yet.
i liked them because they are a press fit with the current paddles going inside these instead of sticking on.
that will only be a good thing if they are machines well and fit just right..I’ll let ya know when I get em
probably the only fault I find with my car is I wish the paddies were on the column not the Steering wheel

I've driven a few other cars with add-on paddle extensions that didn't feel quite right, but like the idea.... Sometimes the added mass makes them feel a bit off, sometimes the oversize shape gets in the way of gauge vision or other controls, but I like the idea, so please let us know how you like them once you get some seat time with them.
I just have a tough time spending $250 for an add-on that might not work out all that well.
