I just received CF paddle shifter I will be retrofitting them on to my car tonight. I searched high and low for Carbon Fiber Paddle shifters. after hours of searching I found a guy that makes them on the M3 forums. Anyway here is a sneak peak before the install. They will look sick complimenting the rest of my CF interior.

Those look awesome, how hard to install them?

His website does not have any content other then a logo. So I can't point you there. PM me and I will give you his email address. He has other CF parts like a CF Steering wheel.

I paid on Saturday and the paddles were delivered today.

nice! your right it will look great with the rest of the interior! do you have the MP wheel?

My M3 paddles that I purchased from Christian were just mounted using appoxy I plan on doing the same thing. They are very secure.

I have one on order from Performance parts all leather 4 weeks to deliver. The rest of my interior is Carbon Fiber.

I mounted the CF Paddles. They do look sweet! The left paddle is 2mm from clearing the windshield wiper. These paddles have a slight elevation mounting point which kind of bothers me because it makes the mounting area visable. I I am getting a thicker steering wheel so it may not be an issue. Worse case senario it bugs me enough that I have to take them off to grind down the elevated mounting area.

Very unique and clean interior!! I am not a fan of the paddle shiffters, since I accidently hit the buttons as it is but the looks rocks!!

Those look nice. IMO the paddles are too big for the steering wheel. Also on the last picture, I can see that they touch the cruise and blinker/wiper control sticks as well. I will have to see how the other paddles would work on MB steering wheel and decide what to buy.

SANDOVAL

Ok the way the paddles stuck out was bugging me! I had to fix the problem. So I pulled out my grinding wheel from storage and went to work. They look 100X better now. Also the clearence around the sticks has improved. Now I need my thicker wheel to come in!

I like the feel of leather when driving I orderd the MP all leather wheel.

SANDOVAL, I like your energy and drive. The paddles I don't care for, kind of look like big ears. That's just me, glad you like them.

VERY pretty! I'm thinking about getting a new steeringwheel too. Definitely all leather. I'm interested to see what you get.

SANDOVAL

The paddles were intend for the M3 if your read my first post that is where I found them. The pictures do not do them justice. They feel great while drivin no bulky or in the way.

Here is the Steering wheel I chose:

So exactly how did you get them to fit on there? glue or is there a specific way to do this???

SANDOVAL

I had to grind down the metal mounting points. Then I used high pressure universal plastic epoxy to bond.

Is there really an E55 "presidents edition"? What does this car have different? anyone have a link to it for more details?
