Hey Mike,
Well, I took a few pictures and I have a couple of the original lever and the new one to clear up any doubts. The post you mentioned, #103, is for a 330i and not a 335i and I believe the Shift Levers are different in both kits... check realoem.com to be certain.
This is how the original lever looks like (I'm selling the OEM assembly
):
And this is how the one from the 335i SSK (which I installed) looks like:
This picture is taken from this thread, you can check part numbers and the realoem link there too:

You can see that BOTH have the bent lever although they are slightly different.
Now these are the pictures of my SSK install. I bought the M-Tech perforated leather shift knob instead of the kit's one.
