Do you recommend getting this Reinhart matrix anyways for my SSR? The sound seems quite minor to me but I only have 15000 miles on it. How much does the part and labor cost in case GM not paying for it? ( I have an extended warranty)

The donut-equipped shaft seems to be a warranty repair aporoach, NOT original equipemnt. At least, I have not run into one yet that was orignal equipment.
The dealer has no right to refuse service on the driveshaft just because you have a supercharger installed. Most dealer service writers would not even notice though too.
I HIGHLY recommend Dennis's MMC driveshaft. Besides getting rid of the tink, it is also far quieter in general, and a MUCH higher quality shaft.
I do not know the new price of Dennis's driveshaft, which I am led to believe might be lower than that of the original one he offered. The original one cost about $550 as I recall. Labor is literally 20 minutes or less. My mechanic friend Randy did the swap in my DRIVEWAY, without a hoist.
