paddle shift change

After driving a Db11, the metal feel of the pedal shifters has me spoiled. I was wondering if theres any good options for the f13 m6's paddle shifts? I'd prefer metal but won't say no to CF if its done right. Would highly appreciate suggestions.

I have the carbon fiber ones from Auto Tecknic.
Quality and feel is great in my opinion!
If you really want that solid feel then you'll want to go with metal, as the size of the paddles will allow a bit of bend in the CF upon shift actuation.

I went with the Pedal Haus Extended Billet DCT Shifter Paddles. They look great and aggressive for paddles, anyone who sits in my car notices them right off the bat.

Well they are more bendy than any aluminum option out there, and more bendy than the OEM ones that come with the car. However, I personally don't notice it during shift actuation, as not much force is need to actuate a shift. If it concerns you at all, then I suggest going with metal. I put aesthetics over feel as I couldn't resist the look of the carbon fiber to match my interior trim.

These are the exact ones I have.
