Where Are We Buying CSL Bumpers These Days?

BTW if you guys have ideas of new carbon fiber parts you would like, please let me know. Small parts are easier to do and ship

I will keep my LSB pretty much to have an E46 M3 to do test fit with JC/Mile End.

i-is a CF slicktop easy enough?🙃

Can you remake the OG CSL keychain?

I just want everyone to know that it was I who thought of this brilliant idea and asked.

LOL

Heres my Mile End Composites CSL bumper. Bought it over a year ago and never got around to installing it, until last week. I'm extremely happy with it.

Austin, TX. Seems like the only options nowadays are Karb or Slonik.

I think because JC built parts in Canada, there is no duties/Custom fees for you guys in USA I need to confirm with him but pretty sure that’s what he told me. But shipping is crazy expensive here vs USA. Shipping a bumper from MTL to California is like 600$CAD now…

Karbonius only offer the trunk, no bumper or diffuser.

If I can find an E46 M3 cheap enough, I would like to get Karbonius rear quarter panels!!!

Where are you located?

😮 Would love to be able to buy a quality replica CSL trunk and bumper without paying a near 50% premium for overseas shipping from other companies. Fingers crossed things pick back up smoothly. 🤞

So here is the truth about Mile End Composite. Mile End Composite is made of only 2 guys: Dee (a member here and an E46 M3 enthusiast) and JC (who is a composite guy).

Dee started Mile End Composite to offer this community quality CSL parts. You guys were buying your parts directly from him or Mile End website in the past. Dee is now super busy with his real job (not Mile End which is more a side project) and with personnal life. He had no time for Mile End / CSL parts lately.

JC has his own compagny, he his doing composite work not only limited to automotive. He was doing the CSL parts for Dee but he also has other regular local customers. He has lots of work to do and always busy. He works alone and your CSL parts are made buy a single guy, one at the time. He is not on the forum and has no time to take orders.

So I am going to help them both a bit cause I am always on this forum and in contact with JC. I helped the guys in the past to do test fitment on my M3’s of different CSL parts and will continue to do so in the future.

I am also looking to work with JC to bring more new CF parts to the market cause I want to drop the weight on my personnal E46 M3 Laguna Seca blue So here are
some of the parts I am looking to do with JC:

-Cabin filter housing
-rear deck shelf panel without speakers cut out
-rear seat delete & strenghtening wall
-…

I also want JC to do a complete wider front end (front bumper & fenders) to hide more of the exposed part when running wide front wheels/big tires to help aero, mainly for track purpose.

But since JC works alone, when he is doing developpement or a new mold, there is no cash coming, only expense so he can’t be on many different parts at the time, like everyone else he has bills to pay!


I will let you guys know when more parts will be available. This fall, we are supposed to work on a new mold for the CSL diffuser.

Wait, so you're saying Mile End Composites parts are going to... exist/be orderable?

Whoever got the CF bumper off Gt4, you're a lucky man.

I don’t want to promise anything but we are looking to do more parts / differents parts in the future. JC was super busy lately but I think it should be a better timing for parts this fall.

**Update**

NO more bumper available, thanks for your interest everyone!

Peter from Vorsteiner is making CSL parts again.

Just wait a bit and they will be available again stateside.

Will be interested in seeing all the parts they end up making. I hope they make OEM styles as well, and don't just offer their own spicy versions.
