Does anyone know if the other CF bits on the dash can be bought as OEM bits? I want to put some more CF in but the only option I have found is through CA Automotive who appear to just cover the existing part rather than making a new entirely CF piece. I do not see the point of getting CF if you are going to add weight too the car and not lesson it by a few grammes - surely the whole point of CF!

Unfortunately, no.

Here's an alternative supplier:

Carboproject

If your CSL originally had no stereo - then yes.

Hi Rob, it's looking great!

btw did someone copy your red rims? i've seen a CSL at the ring last weekend

Pip1968 · 03-08-2010, 01:55 PM

Yes, I saw it too and just assumed was Glendog. My spot was on the Nurburgring camera completely by chance I thought I would have a look and saw the red wheeled CSL doing a three point turn away from the tolls with another CSL (black from memory) just coming off the track behind.

I assumed the following black CSL would could not keep up (slower!) and decided to have a rest instead of relapping hence the red wheeler turning around.

Sadly it wasn't me at the Ring

Maybe it was new member 'Clayton' - he has red 18" M3 track wheels:
