This comes with both the concave plastic caps for the L2/R2 triggers, and rubber caps with rings for the analog sticks.
The rubber caps do a great job of minimizing the chance of slipping your thumb off of the stick. The covers are not concave like on the Xbox 360 controller, though.
The trigger caps are a good idea, but the way they are made offset the benefit it gives.
The best thing about the caps are that there is zero chance of slipping your fingers off of the L2/R2 triggers with these caps on.
The curvature of the caps is too high at the back. This makes it difficult to hit with middle fingers from the rear while using L1/R1 buttons with the index fingers at the same time.
Also, the back of the caps are all right-angled instead of rounded. To me, this makes it uncomfortable to use because I rest my index or middle fingers behind the L2/R2 triggers.
After a month of use, I no longer use the concave caps, but I am still using the rubber covers for the sticks.
What's great about it: Improves handling of triggers and stickes on PS3 controllers
What's not so great: Caps curve up too high, uncomfortable edges
