Custom paddle shifters prototype

I acknowledge that shipping to Canada may be at added cost, but the brass plate I ordered is 3 inches long and could be put into an envelope and mailed for the cost of a letter. For this, they want me to pay $80?
To me, this is the equivalent of theft. If they don't want to sell to Canada, why don't they just say so on their web site instead of giving the impression that "we'll only sell to any Canadians who are dumb enough to let us rip them off."

Any updates? Replacing the plastic paddles with something more substantial is all my car needs to be absolutely perfect!

Good news!
Okay everyone, finally got pricing for 1 piece version that attaches to the existing paddles. You can not see the plastic paddle looking into the car, but you can still see the illuminated part. Price is currently $250 per set. If you want a 2 piece design that fits over and completely covers the existing paddles, the price is double that so about what the factory ones cost but much, much better for all of the obvious reasons.
They are telling me I need to order a minimum of 12 sets for this price but I am trying to negotiate a slightly better price.
So I need to know who is in at this price and which version you want?
Thank you very much!

The final product will be identical in shape to the prototype I made, the difference will be in fit and finish. The shifters will be of Jaguar quality or higher, not "homemade".

[QUOTE=DGL;936351]Hey jahummer, Thanks for all your work. I'm looking forward to see a final copy to see how they look and fit before committing. Could you please post some pictures of the final product?[/QUOTE
IF I can get around the 12 set minimum, I will proceed and post pics of course.
