Shift paddles

Just playing around with my car.
What are your thoughts?
I may engineer bigger and longer (that's what she said anyway) for the M3/M4/M5/M6 guys.

I think those look awesome, Ben

. They seem very practical as well for easy shifting. Now you're really tempting me to buy and retrofit the m sport wheel, lol!

Thanks.
It is much skinnier than the original one. Except this one looks more sportier.

I'll give you my opinion when I see you. Gotta get a closer look before I throw my 2 cents in.

imho: ugly. Totally no sensible proportions at all.

But: I don't have to like them.

Paddle shifters on an SUV. Now that's funny.

And yes, mine has them. Even funnier on a diesel...

It helps when you need to down shift faster to pass someone going 40mph on 65mph.

So cool mod ever!

Make it a little longer and bigger.

Was thinking the wheel is too thin. Do you think the X5M wheel is going to be thicker or same with colour stiching? Is it the same with other newer m cars?
