It's definitely a mod that makes the controller much better to use, but sadly it's not perfect.

That's how mine looks after a few years of use.

Ive used it on plastics for years and never had an issue.

Well like I said that's the result of at least 3 years of use. But Jet Set Radio and Propeller Arena (or any other games that requires a lot of full or half circle movements of the stick) are sure to make quick work of these PS4 sticks. XD
