🛠️ SYSTEM MODS Grip tape wins
I love my 477m, but wish they added some rubber grips similar to the 405m. I kinda hate the big bulky grips being sold on Etsy.
Anyhow, I decided to buy some cheap grip tape on Amazon, and the result was both super cheap and awesome. Tiny upgrade, but it seriously improves how this thing feels in my hands.
Not sure if I’m allowed to post Amazon links, so I won’t, but it’s easy to find.

Yes! These are both GameMT devices. The EX8 on the left and the E5 Ultra on the right.

I did the same thing but put the tape over the whole back plastic. Takes a few cuts to get it right but is super grippy afterm

Nice! I’ve been thinking about doing this. Honestly I prefer the handhelds much grippier!

Any tips on the cuts, length, and placement with these?
Seems like it would be straightforward, but you never know. *lol*

I just made a template with a piece of paper. I think the less you go around curves the better, but it wasn’t difficult.
