My CSL in the paint shop-OEM Bumper?

[NZ_M3]

Is the entire bumper CF then? I thought it was fibreglass with CF extensions?? Can somebody confirm this please, cricky how much is it to replace?

The whole thing is autoclave pre-preg dry carbon fiber. Look for the "Made in Slovenia" sticker shown in the other post by Shimmy.

It is done in multiple layers - and in different weave, pattern and strength configuration. If you look at the impact bar it's also done in a very different weave pattern to the rest of the bumper, hence its strength.

I believe in Europe the bumpers are circa 2800 pounds correct gents?

Here in NZ the dealers (I mean stealers) charge about NZ$10,000 for the front bumper

Now who wants to pick up a few for me and put it in a shipping container :hahaha:

That's about right yeah. When I looked into replacing mine, it was going to be about that for supply only, not even painted. Mental money! :bigcry:
