I pulled some of the paddles of a standard IS (uses same bases as the F) and took the paddle apart. Gotta find someone local with a detailed 3D scanner so I can have some larger prototypes printed. Definitely want something bigger like in the LC or Ferrari's. A sticker extension just wouldn't do it for me.

Woah woah, details please! What did you make them out of / did you just build on the factory paddles? Also is the spring in the paddle still retained with these? The size looks epic.

This is how it literally started, I fiberglassed over the OEM ones so it had a strong base structure, after that I just cut out the bulky parts of the OEM paddels, Laos down some more fiberglass and now I’m on the finishing process, hopefully done by the end of this week I started then Monday

I do wish we could get big meaty paddles. I love this trans, would make manual driving even better.

Ive been looking on and off for ages for some decent extended Carbon (or any colour really) paddles for an ISF. Just to see some options would be great vs the 3IS, plenty online for that model.

Anyway i did find some, same guy who i purchased my carbon wheel from so his quality is great. Im Oz based so with our crappy dollar, its a bit excessive at $250US for paddles but they look good. Not as curved like the OEM but extended carbon ones. See pics

Sorry not sure. As i wasnt keen to spend $370AU at the time on just paddles i didnt bother asking for dimensions. The seller confirms and as per the pics, it definitely sits higher but yeah i dont know the measurements.

Ask him on Instagram Elvin Wong
