WTB: WTB/HELP - CSL Right Roof Moulding 51137897926

[mainstreamer00]

As the title states, I'm having the best time trying to locate a new OEM right-side CSL roof moulding #51137897926

I've been dealing with my local dealership, and currently have an order in at Schmiedmann for this piece. It appears that the order date keeps getting pushed back by BMW.
Have also emailed various suppliers in Eastern Europe etc to no avail yet.

I know this is a long-shot but does anybody have either a source for one, or this part on-hand?

Thanks 🙏

Baller, I just painted mine black! Haha, good luck. I couldn't find them either when I was planning the install.

Haha at this point it's a drop in the $bucket ^ (though they really jacked up the prices on these over the last few years)

It's more just annoying my aesthetic-OCD.. will realistically have to wait for production to start again, but at least the roof is sealed tight.

I almost got these when I did my CF roof last year but didn’t, kinda regret it now. Your best bet is Schmeidmann’s. I think COVID is affecting the supply chain here. I’d be patient and wait for this to blow over and just keep your order placed.

I’ve had good luck with Eastern European ebay sellers including this one. Supposedly 4 available

Emailed their shop as well as through Ebay - hopefully getting a reply shortly, but that "in stock" availability caught my eye.
Thanks for the link!

I thought I saw ECS had these in stock...

Currently- “ships on August 5, 2020”
Those supply chain issues I guess..

Think I’ve got one sourced though!

Can I ask where? Thinking about having my CF roof done earlier than I’d planned

The shop in Latvia that runs the above eBay link has confirmed that they have stock.. although let's see if they actually have stock in their warehouse or need to source through BMW (then we'll probably run into issues)
I'm also waiting for my sales guy at Schmiedmann to confirm their availability... but after a month waiting (they initially said 5-days), I'm not holding my breath for anything quick.

Orders are placed with both.. let's see who wins 😑

Thanks. What are you doing about a headliner? The CSL one is pretty reasonable at about $400, but I haven't found anywhere that will ship it for less than about $300. The owner of the body shop I'm going to used to own a BMW dealer around here so I've asked him about sourcing this stuff as well ..

I ordered everything else through my local dealer - no shipping costs, and they’re really good on pricing.
If parts need to come from Germany though I would anticipate delays unfortunately.

FYI - for anybody looking to do a CF roof and running CSL mouldings, the eBay seller here from Latvia has these in stock and ships stupidly quick.

This is about the only source out there that has these currently available for a "reasonable" price.

Nice find, did you get them in already?

Yep!
I only needed the right side - left came through my dealer, and then the back order news.
I wouldn’t hesitate to buy from this seller though. Skepticism turned to satisfaction.
