Swapped Out My Paddle Shifters

[M5Fanatics]

Hello everyone,

I recently changed the paddle shifters on my X6 with the M paddle shifters that come in the M models. These paddles came off from my buddy's F80 M3 and they fit fine but the back cover did not sit because the screw that holds the paddle shifter wasn't long enough. Overall I'm happy with this mod.

I've attached before and after photos below,

What was the reason you have them swapped other then different shape?

My friend gave them to a while ago after he sold his M3 and they have been siting in storage. So might as well swap them to change things up

Cool

Aren't they also aluminum instead of plastic? If so, one more reason to swap.
