    Decent fitting CSL bumper (non kevlar bar)

    Hi, this has probably been beaten to death, but can anyone recommend a decent fitting CSL bumper that doesn’t utilize the kevlar bar? I have an SGT currently and am looking for a better alternative without breaking the bank. I’m seeing a lot of CSL reps in the 2k price range. Thanks in advance

          This is great news - I’ll wait it out and see what they bring to the market. Thanks everyone!

              I’m not holding my breath — he replied to someone in that thread and made it sound like it wouldn’t simply be a “re-release” of their old CSL style products…

                I was kinda worried about that. I’m a pessimist by nature lol - What about MileEndComposites? Pretty much not in the game anymore right? Sent them several DM’s on insta but nothing. I could just go with an oem euro bumper, but love the CSL look. I know Alsatek is out there but I believe they are well over $2k. Looks like a quality piece. Anyone running any of their CSL bumpers?

                      I think I may go with an oem euro bumper and avoid all the fitment issues. My car is an 03.5 that came with the Kevlar bar. I swapped it out for the aluminum carriers when I installed my CSL bumper. Do I have to swap back the Kevlar bar to fit the euro bumper? I still have the Kevlar bar in my garage. Is there better fitment with either one? Thanks in advance.

                        There are two different P/Ns for the aluminum and kevlar carriers. Sometimes one version is cheaper than the other.

ID:	220282 Well, after all that I ended up ordering a Genuine BMW Euro bumper from ECS (kevlar support) - Will be delivered tomorrow. Now looking into some sort of fog light delete kit. Has anyone seen this? Seems a bit pricey to me. I still want to get a splitter too. Appreciate the help guys and apologize for the layout of text in this post. I’m on my phone and it has seen better days. Click image for larger version

                              Is the Kevlar bar a straight swap, or are other parts needed to install it? My car has the aluminum bar, and the bumper for aluminum bar is NLA apparently. Thinking about switching to Kevlar.
