Default Is there any way to get G37 style paddle shifters on my AT 350z?

I got an 06 AT 350z, and I was wondering if anyone has successfuly installed G37 style paddle shifters on a 5 speed 350z. Seems like it would heavily improve the manual mode shifting.

Please don't be another one of those manual transmission "elitist." There is nothing wrong with wanting paddle shifters to add more "fun factor" in your own car. That is why we modifiy our cars right? Right

To the OP, search paddle shifter, and there is someone who's fabricated their own system that he was looking to sell. Good luck with that

Funny thing is that probably 95% of the threads end up like this...
