To put into perspective, the ones Argon made are about half the price of the ones T800 listed that are on Ebay

As I tend towards indolence P_G, could you possibly convert that hint into a number please?

Says on the site they're based in Manchester. The paddles themselves aren't cheap, although I'm not sure if that's a cheap price for paddles compared to others. All prices in GBP too, so looks like cheap postage and payment via PayPal.
They do look good though!

I believe they are from America mate, Awsome GTI said they have placed an order with their supplier. Who that is I’m unsure, I paid £134 and £9.99 postage so not sure if the price for them is maybe taking into account postage. Saying that though the billet RacingLine ones are £170ish I think.
I have went for the sliver but was very close to getting the black, hopefully I’ve made the right choice.

Well as they come the Leyo don’t fit our cars. There is a curved section milled out to fit at the inside of the paddle where it is connected to the wheel. It would seem is not deep enough to clear the curve of the wheel at that point. So it makes them sit too far out at the inside to clip on properly. I’m going to have to speak with Awesome GTI to either return them or try and modify them to fit. Not ideal at all!

Infact it would seem they are the wrong profile, our paddles appear to have more of a curve than the receiving area on the extension.
I see there is 3 different versions they do?

Yes mate, version 2 and 3 are for totally different shapes paddles. These are for paddles the same shape as ours just slightly different curve profile and would seem slightly bigger also. Watching the fitting video these should clip into place snugly and the securing screw and bar should secure them. I’ll report back what Awesome come back with
