Carbon Fiber Paddles

Curious, are the F80 carbon fiber paddles compatible with the F30? If so, where is a legitimate source to find a pair?

Thanks in advance.

I don't see why not. F3x and F8x share the same steering wheel shape. My steering wheel has the F80 M3 paddles so no reason why the carbon ones wouldn't work.

Yup. I would imagine that it should still fit though.

What's the deal with your brake conversion? I haven't seen any photos of it yet.
