How much are they ?

Sounds like a manufacturing issue, doesn't it ?

£200 each.

I was advised they would be unlacquered, BMW UK advised that before I agreed to have them sent. Bit odd though I agree.

I got a set 2 years ago. They are the 'new version' (with 4 holes, check NZ_M3's thread).
They are lacquered.

What is going on with the cost reduction ?

Sounds like they were an 'Unfinished' product, didn't pass QA inspection, I hope you got a good discount.

I bought spares about a year and a half ago from BMW which are the 4 hole variety. However, the non-laquered version was also offered at the same price

Also these 4 hole types arn't quite as snug a fit as the originals which I've had repaired and put away.

Kindest,

I just heard BMW have 40 CSL boot lids left and when they're gone, that's it. No more boot lids
