These MMR paddles are frickin sweet!

MMR paddles for the F90 recently became available and I was able to get my hands on some in the US thanks to Imran@Evolve

Aesthetic, length, color and fit are, in my eyes, superior to the Autotecknic (went in to the M50 G05) these replace

The cut, angles and shape look way more aggressive
They're a skootch longer (which is always better IMO)
The tint (I went with the dark anthracite hoping to match the black chrome on the trim) is close enough
They feel solid installed, no wiggle, no play (the right Autotecknic had some play in it and I always found my finger on it, wiggling it - still does in the G05)

We've been really impressed with them so they are making us some Evolve branded ones which will be available in 8 weeks or so for the F90/G Series.

Here are the F series ones.

Your steering wheel could be the deciding factor for me to stay with the brand or not. The M5/M8 steering is BORING compared to the AMGs
Where did you get this?

It is factory core so should be identical except semi flat from bottom. Check out vivid racing and get with Ryan.

I just comprehended what you wrote. Didn't realize you can change out the trim on the wheel, I gotta look into that now
