You can still get a roof from Geoff Steel Racing, £550:

Yeah, but... aftermarket roofs can be a disaster. Turing yellow over time, not fitting properly and leaking as a result, cracking due to chassis stress being transmitted through them, etc, etc.

What's acceptable for a race car doesn't always work for a street car. I suspect those are great for race cars... but I wouldn't put one on my street car.

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

They will make more as long as demand is high enough

Which dealer told u that ????

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:moan:

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

Kindest,

Can confirm carbon flippers are available to order through dealer network as I just had some arrive as spares. Took less than a week from Germany, although they arrive unlacquered.

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

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 ? :119:

[0836whimper]

£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.

[outnumbered]

That's weird

Sounds like a manufacturing issue, doesn't it ?

although they arrive unlacquered.

How much are they ?

Gone the way of the 'Carbon Flippers' NLA from BMW, the appear to be winding down the CSL parts production at it approaches the 10yr model cycle.
