OEM CSL Trunk Availability?

Mine is still saying expected delivery 5/22. No updates on my order page.

I guess I got lucky somehow. When I ordered that was my expected ship date as well. I ordered on 3/9.

I got an email with an invoice 5 days after ordering and there was a tracking# on it with a broken link. I just entered that number on DSV and was able to see updates.

Hopefully that's the only thing that changed. I'm replacing my karbonius one because of fitment issues. Ha.

Is the primer black or is it just the photo? I thought they all were light grey, or at least mine was.

I was under that assumption as well, but no it is indeed primer black.

Nice. Did you get a shipping update or did it just show up? My order status hasn't changed.

ECS and Turner have the CSL the trunk lid trim for $136.99 at the moment. Mine shipped yesterday. When I ordered it, it was $188.99 but they were able to do a price adjustment.

Part number 51497896451

Wow all the prices really are going down

Those are both nice finds dustyice AbbeyRoad

I'm not sure the cost difference but I ordered the carpet from Schmeidmann and the rest of the parts individually using these guides, threads:

Got mine on order aswell.

Anyone care to post the latest list of all required parts for the install of OEM trunk?

so fa I ordered trunk and trunk trim panel

Thanks

I opted for the full kit with carpet from turner. Schmiedmann has the carpet for only $98 but the catch is it added $200 to the shipping.
