Description
Magnetic carbon fiber paddle shifters for BMW E-Series, designed by Carrera Custom Garage and built by our manufacturing partners. Made on the exact paddle mount for these cars, so they bolt in and plug into the factory connectors. Three designs, real gloss, matte or forged carbon, one price: $229.95 per pair.
Fits
- BMW E-Series — E46 M3 with SMG, E90 / E92 / E93 M3 with DCT, E92 335i automatic, E70 X5 M and E71 X6 M
Not covered: F-Series and G-Series BMWs use a different paddle mount. Not sure which wheel you have? Send us your VIN or a photo of the back of your steering wheel before ordering and we'll confirm.
Requirement: your BMW must already have factory paddle shifters (automatic, DCT or SMG with manual mode). Not for manual-transmission cars.
Choose your design
- Apex (long-reach): the longest blades in the range, easy to find at any steering angle.
- Aero (slotted): long-reach blades with machined slots for a lighter, motorsport look.
- Shark (gill-vent): long blades with gill-style vents, the boldest pair we make.
Why magnetic?
Factory paddles use a soft spring or rubber-dome switch. Ours are held by magnets, so every pull has a clear break point and a crisp, audible snap, so you always know the shift registered.
Finishes: gloss (deep clear coat), matte (satin, low-glare) or forged (marbled, every pair unique). All real carbon, same price.
Save 30% when you add any Carrera custom steering wheel to the same order, applied automatically at checkout. Free tracked shipping with duties included to the US, Canada, UK, EU and more.
FAQ
Will these paddle shifters fit my BMW?
They are built on the paddle mount for: E46 M3 with SMG, E90 / E92 / E93 M3 with DCT, E92 335i automatic, E70 X5 M and E71 X6 M. Your car needs factory paddle shifters; manual cars are not supported. Driving an F-Series BMW? Use our BMW F-Series paddle shifters. G-Series, F90 M5 or F92 M8? Use our BMW G-Series paddle shifters.
Which design should I pick?
All three are long-reach designs: Apex is the cleanest look, Aero adds machined slots, and Shark has gill-style vents. All use the same magnetic mechanism and cost the same.
Do I need coding, and how hard is installation?
No coding. They replace the factory paddle units and plug into the original connectors. The airbag must come off to reach them, so disconnect the battery first; most owners finish in about an hour.
Who makes these paddle shifters?
Carrera Custom Garage. We design and spec every pair, our manufacturing partners build them to that spec, and we take full responsibility for every pair we sell. If anything is wrong with your order, you deal with us directly and we sort it out.
