OEM CSL Trunk Availability?

[Kipjames3]

With Schmiedmann announcing that they are limiting their US orders to an $800 maximum, that takes out the cheapest option. I wonder if the dealers are gonna match the Turner/ECS pricing.

Amount has been updated to $2500 so the trunks are fine now. I just received an email from them after I asked them about my pending trunk order. They said it's okay to be processed now and will ship out when they come back in stock which on my order details is still showing end of May.

This could be a temporary situation. Tariff situation changes, prices could change. Or, these businesses will just keep prices high if customers continue buying haha

I hope the timeline on Schmiedmann is more accurate than the one given by ECS. They're saying end of August for delivery date. My Schmiedmann order says end of May.

Got mine installed, but also needs some alignment tweaking. The BUrkhart kit worked perfectly. The wiring is way cleaner than I would have gotten it to be.

Not sure if this is gonna update across different vendors, but Turner/ECS raised the price to $6k for the trunk.

That's wild. I wouldn't pay anything more than what I did for it, let alone $6k.

Schmiedmann is still showing $2,3k so they haven't changed much. $6k is crazy.

Mine is still backordered until the end of May though. Guess I wasn't part of that batch everyone was on.

Still haven't got an update on mine. Other CSL parts collecting dust in the garage.

Stil needs alot more adjusting (only spent about 5 minutes on it), but so far so good. Very excited.

Looking good!! I can hardly tell if it needs to be realigned or not.

If everything goes according to plan, I should have mine installed this weekend.

sounds about right 😂

They had one in stock, ready to be shipped out so I said screw it, let's get it now. Plus buying the diffuser and bumper together got me a little discount so that's how I rationalized it in my head. Ha.

I’m way over budget this year. Trying to steer clear of the bumper. However, given my track record, I’ll have one sourced before summer 🤣
