Ewww, I'm not a fan of those, they look nasty, something a little more subtle would be better here in my opinion. 
I have the paddles in my car and I thought this was standard across the board, but after speaking with ScottB5 he mentioned that not all of them have them at all  So presumably adding paddles would be whole much bigger ball ache than changing the existing ones for better chromed up versions. Is there something inside the cowling of the steering column which would allow someone doing the retro fit on their car, or is it not possible 
Regards, Mark.

Future Plans:
Selling my current Audi A8 Quattro Sport and replace is with a newer D4 Audi A8L with the 4.2V8 Twin Turbo setup once again it must be black. I'm looking for one with the options added where it has the rear recliing seats, with heated outers. Bose speakers minimum and B&O's if affordable. Rear and back door sun blinds prefered.
Planned Mods:
Upon the arrival of my A8L D4, I will be once again having the ECU remapped to a performance setting over economy. Rear Tints as dark as can go whilst also tinting the front windows with a medium tint. Once again I will be purchasing lowering links for the air ride suspension and setting it at 55mm lower when in comfort as my desire rideheight over standard. Alloys will be 21" however the one current most likly to be the next car already has a brand new set of 2016 S8Plus wheels on it.
