My SteinAir panel is a bit lower than the stock panel and I have
Infinity grips. I had to put just a slight bit more bend in the
sticks to insure clearance.

I have noticed in many of the pictures of panels and interiors that
the depth of the instrument panel and height of the stick is clearly
going to limit full nose down
elevator. Perhaps folks think they will never need full nose down
elevator. While we are not supposed to spin the airplane
intentionally I am concerned that recovery from an inadvertent spin
might be slowed or impossible with limited forward stick travel. I
wonder how folks with panel extensions and full length sticks are
meeting the design elevator travel limits.
On my airplane the panel is about 1/2 inch deeper than stock. By
shortening the vertical straight portion of the stick to as short as
possible and still mount an unmodified grip, I have the clearance
necessary to get full down elevator. The stick ends up about two
inches forward of the lower edge of the panel at the full nose down
position.

There's a bit of manufacturing tolerance in the sticks and/or attach hardware.
I had to bend one stick a bit, while the other was okay! (stock panel).
