Podium Hub (without Universal Hub)

Did a bit of searching in the forums and couldn't find anything regarding the information i am looking for so hoping someone can help me.
I am looking to get the Podium Hub along with the Clubsport Wheel Rim Drift and static shifter paddles.
My question is, do i need to get the Universal Hub or is there a way i can just use the wheel rim attached to the podium hub without the universal hub or do i need to buy the universal hub? I personally do not like the look of the universal hub and prefer the clean look of just the Clubsport Wheel Rim Drift.

All the Hubs are interchangeable so everything you can connect to a ClubSport Universal Hub (except the button Islands) can also be attached to a Podium Hub. Yes.
Great!! Thanks... I think i will just add the Magnetic Paddle Module and that should be fine.
Actually, the Podium Hub DOES support using two of the button islands (6 buttons), not included (sold separately), just not the Fanatec Funky Switch.
Thanks Jack... i went ahead and ordered the Hub and Wheel... i just got everything and it works amazing. I am trying to find some longer spacers to bring the paddles closer to the rim though :) It's pretty far back.
There are two sets of mounting holes for the shifters. It looks like you have the shifters mounted in the holes farthest from the wheel rim. Remount them in the closer ones.
That was the first thing i did. I know from this angle it is hard to tell, but they are brought forward towards the wheel. I was looking at the arm which comes with the Static Shifter and thats exactly what i need LOL It's angled perfectly towards the wheel but unfortunately they don't sell those by themselves.
I've been checking a few other forums to get some ideas ... so hopefully i find a solution soon :)
