i just ordered 2 thumb stick grips from Singapore

. i need one for my wavebird and the other will be tested on a DC controller. i wont get the grips for 10-30 days though

. i wonder if it would be easier to just use the grips instead of modding a controller? it sure would be cheaper. anyway bellow is a link to the auction i ordered my grips from. i will let you guys know how well they work on DC sticks.

i got my rubber grips in today. they work alright, but they feel a little lose. i probably could fix that by gluing them down though. i took some pics of how they look on my wavebird and DC controller.

Not bad. I am going to mod my other controllers to be like the one drunken ghost sent me, and I will also add the 360 face buttons to them.
The stick I have on mine is black, like the new xbox elite slim joysticks. Honestly, rubber concaved joystics make a world of difference.

these grips might not be as nice as modding the whole thing. but for $2.50 for 2 grips, they are definitely cost effective.

what part did you shave down to fit on the analog stick? and how do you keep the buttons from falling out if you shave them down to the height of the other ones? it looks like it will just fall out of the front. please make a video or post some more info so ill have a bit more help so i can do it my self.
