These guys just posted on their Facebook page a photo, and their website doesn't indicate that it's out of stock....

I've purchased from AP Motorsport and can vouch they're legit. Stock a lot of CSL parts. Not sure the availability status...i'd jump in while you can!

As far as pricing....I am still jumping in my seat that I got one for $700 via ebay.

I guess nobody could've predicted what would have happened, but I passed on this one over the summer for $670. It has some light scuffs in the primer that would have come out with some sanding before paint. Kicking myself that I didn't buy it. Would have been nice been nice even to have it in case my car got rear ended one day.

i was talking to a buddy of mine years back (an E30 head like myself), and was trying to team up with him to purchase a bunch of CSL trunks. We saw first hand what E30 M3 parts had sold for & knew it was a matter of time for specialty parts for the E46, esp since it was hard to purchase these trunks like 8-10yrs ago. Hey we saw it with the OEM CSL bumpers, diffusers & anything Vorsteiner for our cars....now you can't find any of them.

that was one hell of a deal. Someone scored with that one for sure

I got another email from Turner saying "Hello, Regarding the CSL trunk. My product team confirmed the item has been discontinued by BMW at this time. Did you wish for me to cancel the order at this time?"

Has anyone else heard anything else from Turner or ECS?

I haven't received any communication other than the auto-generated email saying it's delayed until 03/16/21. It's still available to purchase on ECS: https://www.ecstuning.com/b-genuine-...007895884~oee/

What color is it?

PO painted it what looks like Interlagos Blue. It's a bit rough cosmetically but tip top otherwise. I'm going to get it repainted TiAg
