BMW F Series / G Series | Magnetic Carbon Fiber Paddle Shifters

BMW F Series / G Series Magnetic Carbon Fiber Paddle Shifters

Designed for owners of BMW F-series and G-series vehicles equipped with the factory paddle-shifter sport steering wheel, these Magnetic Carbon Fiber Paddle Shifters magnetically attach over the OEM paddles. No wiring, no modification, no drilling. Simply place the carbon extension over the OEM paddle and powerful magnetic retention holds it firmly in place. Imported from leading manufacturers around the world and quality-controlled by BYC Performance.

These paddle extensions widen the OEM paddle surface, improving shift ergonomics and adding a premium 2x2 twill carbon fiber touch to the cabin. The shifting experience sharpens: your hands never leave the wheel. High-grade 2x2 twill prepreg carbon fiber + neodymium magnet substrate.

Key Features

• Magnetic Retention: Strong neodymium magnets clamp firmly to the OEM paddle. No wiring, screws, or adhesive.
• No Modification Required: Installs in 30 seconds, removes in 5. Steering wheel is untouched.
• 2x2 Twill Prepreg Carbon: Premium carbon fiber weave under a high-gloss UV-protective clear coat.
• Wider Paddle Surface: Larger contact area than OEM paddle, ergonomic gain during shifts.
• Broad F+G Chassis Coverage: Compatible with most BMW F-series and G-series sport steering wheels with paddle shifters.

2x2 Twill Prepreg vs. Wet Carbon

• Autoclave-cured under heat and pressure → more homogeneous weave
• Controlled resin ratio → lighter and stronger
• A production method widely favored in motorsport
• Minimal UV fade

Installation

1. Unbox the paddle extension set (left + right).
2. Wipe the OEM paddle surface with isopropyl alcohol.
3. Place the carbon extension over the OEM paddle. Magnetic force auto-aligns.
4. Confirm firm attachment, test the shift action.

Removal: Pull the extension sideways. Removes in 5 seconds.

Care

Wipe with a soft cotton cloth. Avoid oils, creams, and abrasive chemicals. Keep the magnetic contact surface clean.

FAQ

How do I know if my car has paddle shifters? Check the rear of the steering wheel for small plastic paddles on the left and right (marked -/+ or R/L). If absent, your car does not have paddle shifters.

Fits E46 / E60 / E90? No. E-series paddle geometry differs; this product is for F + G series only.

Is the magnetic retention strong enough? Yes. Neodymium magnets hold firm during aggressive driving, track days, and rapid shifts.

Do I need to disassemble the steering wheel? No. The paddles fit without taking the steering wheel off.

Compatible with BMW M steering wheel? Yes. Compatible with BMW M steering, Alcantara M Performance steering, and standard sport steering wheels with paddles.

Can it be used on pre-F-series BMWs? No. F-series (2011+) and G-series (2018+) only.

Pair included? Set includes two extensions for left and right paddles.
