One of the exciting factors of having a shiftable automatic transmission is being able to bang through the gears. However on the Porsche 996 and 986 Tiptronic steering wheels, the little shift buttons are less then desirable. So to add excitement to your Tiptronic steering wheel, we have created these carbon fiber paddle shifters! These paddles are molded from the factory buttons and simply lay on top of the factory part to still have the OEM functionality. The paddle extends up and down about 3 inches giving you more places to shift from when your hands are on the wheel. Road racing and taking a hard turn and don't want to take your hands off 10 and 2? No problem! The shifters are made from 100% carbon fiber and are built up to 1/8 inch thick for strength when shifting from the extensions. The direct fitment part to the OEM button retains that depression for a nice feel with your thumb. The high gloss carbon fiber paddles simply attach with either strong 3M double tape or you can use a small amount of epoxy (recommended). Each paddle features a simple + and - to complete the look. The paddles sold in pairs fit on all Porsche 996 and 986 Boxster cars from 99-05 with the Tiptronic steering wheels.

Innovative!! Well done.

 

Can this fit the four spoke wheel ?

 

picture please...

 

clever idea. amazing fab work, but jesus is that ugly!

 

+1 on the beauty factor.

 

Would probably look better in brushed aluminum.

 

good concept but the execution needs to be tweaked a little bit. smaller paddle shifters perhaps?

 

Yikes, great idea.... not feeling the look so much
