I used to have a bunch of different e30's and i worked at a BMW resoration shop. we used to take the stock shifters out and have the welder cut and add about a half an inch on the bottom of the shifter. I had another e30 with a bav auto complete shift kit (all the linkages) and to be honest there was not that much of a difference. Also Grassroots motorsports did an artical on short shifters in their e36 m3 and they said that the B&M was the most expensive and the worst. Sometime the product that cost the most is not the best.
