I´ve been looking for a new set of paddles as they (as most do) have some scratches on them. I almost bought a set from Carbonio - but have found that I prefer the look of the Challenge Stradale ones. I´m sure the Carbonio style is best ergonomics wise - but then again - I reeeeally like the look of the CS type I see that MACarbon sell these - but just can´t justify $925 + shipping and then 25% tax on top of that. I also see that R-tuned sell these - has anyone fitted these? Have found mixed reviews from this supplier so am a bit skeptical. Are there any other options than these suppliers that I have missed? Best regards, Tor
If I were going to get aftermarket carbon fiber paddles, I'd probably get the ones from Exotic Car Gear. They are slightly longer than the OEM paddles, but not as long and skinny as the Carbonio Ferrari 360 Carbon Fiber GT Extended Paddle Shifters - Exotic Car Gear, Inc.

I found these on Ebay for $350, but never got a response from the seller if they were for the 360 or 430...as I know they are not interchangeable. Nobody else seems to have this style unfortunately. Image Unavailable, Please Login
David, do you have any pictures of them mounted on a car? And from the backside? They look nice Alpinetourer: I agree! Would also like a set of aluminium paddles but they are nowhere to be found... Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Tor, I cannot recommend the Carbonio paddles too much; they are sheer quality and you will not be disappointed. I would avoid RTuned products as they are plastic and not carbon fibre. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Tor- For street use, the bottom part of the extension is much more useful than the top part. Having used the Carbonio paddles for several years, I cannot recommend them highly enough. Image Unavailable, Please Login
Thanks for the feedback! Trying to make up my mind of what to choose: I´m leaning a bit towards Carbonio again because of all the good reviews - but then again prefer the looks of the CS ones by Exotic Car Gear. Guess I have to sleep on it a couple of nights. BTW: Does anybody know if there are any dealers around San Jose/San Francisco of Carbonio or Exotic Car gear? Going to California for a week in May so could pick up some parts there to avoid international shipping (and 25% tax by putting them in my handbag
If it is only about looks, get whatever you want. If you care about functionality, the Carbonios work great.
Carbonio is a sponsor on the forum. Send them a PM and see if they can help you out or give any recommendations for other sellers of their paddles. I got the extended carbon paddles from Carbonio and they're fantastic for my daily driving both in functionality and phenomenal looks. The additional reach is useless during more spirited driving, as if you're shifting with that much wheel turn you're doing something very wrong.

I went for the CS style paddles and installed them in my car this week. Excellent quality and fitted in 2 minutes. Just had a CS TCU installed as well so now I can pretend driving a CS Image Unavailable, Please Login
