"I would just like to say a big thank you to Bilal at Stormwerks for the epic design of his new SMG paddles……… I was lucky enough to be the first customer and also lucky enough to have him fit them and even when I first saw them in the box I knew that these were going to be something special and added to the rest of my special Stormwerks collection, and after fitment and use I was correct. The brushed stainless steel look just oozes quality and the design makes the OEM ones which BMW must have ploughed big bucks into look like something you would find on the shelves of Halfords ……….. I can safely say that the Neoprene feel gives you the feeling of so much more control of the paddle than the OEM ones could ever do. For anyone thinking of buying these I can safely say that you will not be disappointed and I give them 10 out of 10"

I fitted the paddles over Christmas and they're superb. I love the look and feel of them. The neoprene is a touch of genius. In this cold weather, the neoprene is warm and soft to the touch. Superb. and I'm convinced the gear-changes are slicker and quicker . I’ve bought all the Storm Motorwerks products available for the E46 M3 SMG. They’re in a different class to other aftermarket products. They’re all about form and function. The form is perfect – understated and classy – taking your car’s interior to a level of aesthetics that matches the heights of its technical attributes. To an untrained eye, the Storm handbrake, gearknob, gaiter ring, paddles and satnav knobs look as if they belong there, as if the car came from the factory with them fitted, because the design is so well judged. But for anyone who owns them, who has put them side by side with the original parts, the difference is massive. These parts are what your car deserves. I assume a helluva lotta time has been spent on creating these – time and thought and care – because they’re works of art, and the function is every bit as artful as the form. The products are made from the best materials. They are weighty, solid, and this level of quality isn’t just about limiting the wear and tear of time. It’s about how the product feels in your hand, how tactile it is, how it will improve your driving experience. It’s about how it will make gear-changes slicker and quicker, make your handbrake engagement more positive, make the simple act of turning on your stereo more positive. . Storm products ensure the time spent in your car is even better than your first time. I really can’t speak highly enough of them. And as if all this weren’t enough, the customer care is second to none. The guys at Storm are passionate about their products, and they want you to be passionate about them too. Always informative, supportive, and keen to follow up on how you’ve got on with their products. Believe me, if you’re modding your car, Storm Motorwerks is where you need to start.
