Aftermarket paddle shifters, what kind are you using?

There's so many choices, I like the metal ones but the CF looks good too, I plan to switch out the steering wheel trim too, the brushed metal doesn't seem to belong.

Following.

Can we all just agree that the wheel bmw is installing across the brand is ugly as shit.

The wheel in my f80 was a work of art and literally every time I got in the car it caught my eye.

I'd love to have that wheel w all the dap and heat goodies (and if I recall the paddles were really nice too)

[IMG][/IMG]I got these from IND. Very happy with them. I've had the carbon fiber ones before in previous cars and they feel plasticky and flexi.

Do you have to take the steering wheel off to fit these, or can you get at the screws in situ?

You do not have to take steering wheel off for either installing the paddles or replacing the trim. Just the airbag.
