Colored rev match paddles?
Just noticed they're doing this on the new C7 grand sport...thoughts? I'm sort of flip flopping on this one.

I have seen replacement paddles, the work required to strip down the column seems crazy.
Not worth it, (to me) maybe if it was a simple swap. Also you don't really use the rev match paddles like you would say on a ZL1 10 speed auto. Inwould consider it if the paddles were used constantly.

Yeah I saw one guy that got rid of them because he kept hitting them by accident. The paddles that I saw were actually colored rev match paddles on the grandsport. I saw yellow and orange-ish/red.
I wouldn't bother doing it but thought they would start adding them to the Camaro as well.

The paddles are only color matched to the Red or Yellow stitching:

So, they're invisible from the factory? That's a real trick.

I'm seriously considering cutting down the size of mine... the bottom edges come down near the volume controls... and once select rev match on I don't really need to touch to them anymore

I know that the GM parts guy, has them on his website, I've flirted with the idea on replacing mine with them, then again, I really have nothing besides my "SS" shifter and dash needles that are red. hmmm maybe I should upgrade to the red seatbelts as well??
