    When sharing, there's an option to explicitly enable downloading. I turned that on, but site is being funny.

    Huh, weird. You're definitely supposed to be able to download them. I updated the links in my post, can you try again?

    If it still doesn't work, PM me your email and I can send you the mesh files directly (they're too big to upload here).

    Does anyone have a CAD file for oil bottle holder in the trunk for our cars? Willing to pay for someone to print and mail it to me please. 🤣

    Appreciate it Heinz! Forgive my ignorance as I've never used that site before, but I don't see a download button. Is it possible to download the file to import the mesh into my CAD application? If not, even just being able to measure in that web app will prove useful so thanks either way!

    Karb snorkel in relation to chassis and bumper: https://s.digital3dcloud.com/space/f...0-a67e5041f647

    Note that the Karb snorkel is NOT the same as the OE CSL flap. The snout of the snorkel is clocked slightly differently. IIRC, when installed, the end of the Karb snout is ~10mm off of where the OE flap sits. Don't think any of this matters for your purposes, but it's worth pointing out.

    Hope those help!

    Does somebody have a 3D scan of the CSL door cards? Interested in designing a model to make my own CF ones.

    Uploading a recreation of the CSL flap seal.

    There are two versions attached: the first is a 1:1 replica and the second is a slightly modified version so that it can print flat on the bed plate without supports. This should be printed out of some relatively stiff (95A or so) TPU.

    Note that you'll need to print two, one for each side of the flap.

    Also, just for reference, here are some pictures of a basically new OE flap:

    Also does anyone have some alternatives, like plugs or block off plate type of things for these?

    CSL SMG Reservoir Bracket

    This bracket is designed to take advantage of the existing stud on the M3's front left shock tower. It saves having to drill and rivet the OE CSL bracket. This part replaces part 41147896136.

    PLEASE NOTE: This piece has been designed on a car that has a Karbonius CSL airbox and Haimus snorkel. I cannot be 100% sure that it fits other combos. If you encounter any fitment issues with your particular combo please reach out to me!

    I recommend printing this in PETG-CF or better. I also recommend using a thin foam washer between the bracket and the shock tower to protect the paint, plus an M6 washer and M6 lock nut.
