Nice - did you have them covered yourself, or was it an option Recaro offered?

They look like BMW Performance seats which have been re-trimmed - 2,899.00 Euros, for the seats last time I looked.
I think 'Alx' has them fitted in his? They may also have been an un-publicised Euro option at the time of ordering.
One of two LHD CSLs I've seen have them fitted. (Pic just for ref)

@Neil M: I have the original seats on mine.

Didn't you comment on a different thread about these seats, some time ago?
Were they an option at the time of ordering as an unspecified extra? Or is my memory playing tricks? :whistle:

No, the thing is that my car had not the original bucket seats anymore. It had some regular BMW sport seats.

When I was trying to find some original seats, someone suggested these recaro seats.

i did comment on them some time ago,but hadnt posted a photo,
took a lot of work to find the oem material but worth it in the end result.
they were recovered by the recaro agent in the uk.
now i can keep the originals good

They look good! How much was it to get them trimmed to match the CSL interior, if you don't mind me asking?

BMW Performance Seats:
Left Seat; Part No: 521 004 421 25, Right Seat; Part No: 521 004 421 26.
I think these are correct.

Would you care to share where you managed to find the material:beer:
The result is as you say worth it.
