Does anyone know of any aftermarket paddles, a way to fit overlays to the paddles on the stock M Sport wheel or a DIY to retrofit paddles from an actual M wheel?

I actually use my paddles, and I find them slightly difficult to grab with my short fingers (especially when turning), so I'd like something like the ones on an actual M or even larger.

I would go find an M6 at your dealer and check if the paddles are any larger. If they are, there is a decent chance you could retrofit them.

They are bigger, so I went over there on the weekend and the parts guys were clueless about buying the paddles themselves. If I can find an online parts dealer, I should be able to get the part number if it exists.

Unfortunately for me (but fortunately for him), my CA has moved down the street to Ferrari/Maserati of Washington, so I don't really have an "in" anymore. :(

Look up the part number on RealOem.com. If it's a big deal to you, and the paddles will now swap, you could swap to an M6 wheel so you know the paddles fit.
