Car Paddle of Automobile Steering Wheel for BMW 1 Series 2017-2018 2 Series 2014-2018 2 Series Tourer 2016-2018 Aluminium Alloy

Restore or upgrade the manual shift capability of your BMW with this set of aluminium alloy steering wheel paddles. Designed for a direct-fit replacement on specific model years of the 1 Series, 2 Series, and 2 Series Tourer, these aftermarket paddles bring a more engaging driving feel without the expense of a new steering wheel. Available in four colours—red, silver, black, and blue—they allow you to personalise your cabin while keeping your hands on the wheel for quicker gear changes.

Features and Construction

These paddles are built from a single material and offered in multiple colour options to suit different interior styles. Their straightforward design focuses on function and compatibility with the listed BMW models.

Material and Build

Each paddle is crafted from aluminium alloy, chosen for its balance of strength and light weight. This material provides a solid feel during use without adding unnecessary weight to the steering column. The surface is finished in the chosen colour, giving a clean, integrated look.

Size and Practical Fit

The paddles are designed to replace the existing shift paddles on compatible BMW steering wheels. No specific dimensions are supplied by the manufacturer, but the fitment has been verified for the 2017-2018 1 Series, 2014-2018 2 Series, and 2016-2018 2 Series Tourer models. They attach using the original mounting points for a straightforward installation.

Uses and Placement

These paddles are intended for everyday driving and occasional spirited use, allowing the driver to manually select gears without taking hands off the wheel. They are suited to both automatic and dual-clutch transmissions that support paddle shift.

Event or Professional Use

For driving enthusiasts or those who occasionally track their car, paddle shifters provide quicker gear changes than using the gear lever. The aluminium construction offers a reliable interface for repeated downshifts and upshifts during performance driving.

Everyday Home Use

In daily commuting, having paddles makes it easier to hold a lower gear for engine braking or to select the right ratio for overtaking. The wide colour range means you can match the paddles to your interior trim, adding a subtle personal touch to your everyday car.

Benefits and Buying Value

This set offers a cost-effective way to add or replace paddle shifters on your BMW. The aftermarket nature of the product means you get the same practical function as factory parts at a lower price point.

Reuse and Low Maintenance

Aluminium alloy is naturally resistant to corrosion and wear, so the paddles should last the lifetime of the car with minimal maintenance. Simply wipe clean with a damp cloth when necessary to keep them looking fresh.

Why Choose This Product

If your BMW came without paddles or the originals have worn out, this set provides a direct, colour-matched replacement. The fitment is model-specific, ensuring a snug installation. Choosing an aftermarket option like this gives you the same functionality with more colour flexibility than standard BMW parts.
