I have a 2006 bmw E90 non sport package but im going to upgrade to the sport steering wheel with paddle shifters. What are the screws and stuff im going to need for it. I know i need a new sport airbag but what else?

Generally you need the following items:

1. Sports steering meant for paddle-shifting
2. A pair of Paddle-shifters
3. Wiring harness
4. Round air-bag
5. Multi-function buttons
6. Trim

I may be missing out something, correct me if I'm wrong. Please check out this link for better idea.

Alternatively, you may also go to ebay to buy the tricolor-stitch M3-style steering and retrofit with all the parts I mentioned. At least that's what I do for my own Steering conversion. Here is another link for your reference:

i bought a 2009 sports steering wheel for paddle shifters just the steering wheel so i just need the trim harnesses and the airbags and multifunction switches. And also that retrofit from burger motoring do you think i can get paddles for really cheap.

The paddle-shifters won't be cheap.. at least a few hundred dollars I think. Not sure about US, could be cheaper than in Singapore.

But definitely the M3 paddle-shifter (SMG, with + & - sign) will be way more expensive compared to the stock 335i paddle-shifter (SSG).

I'm currently using the stock 335i paddle-shifter on my M3 steering, it has been retrofitted as in pulling Left one for DOWN-shift & pulling Right one for UP-shift (the Push is disabled). Pretty similar to M3 paddle-shift style. By right the stock one should be push and pull (simultaneouly left & right paddle) for down and up-shift.
