Is it correct that bmw have stopped selling them now ?

That's correct BMW no longer sell them. They will however take an order for one and when there is enough orders then they say a batch will be made. How true that is we will just have to wait and see.

I need one however I wont be paying anywhere near £1500 for one unless its a never fitted brand new BMW one in the packaging. Geoff Steel Racing does them for circa £600 new so that's more than likely where my cash will go.

What's the cost to fit it and do you need any other bits?

Have you seen the gsr ones? They are race car quality not csl quality, I would never fit one to a csl , simpsons fitted mine at a very reasonable price billy

Yes mate I have, its for my race car so not looking for OEM quality.
My CSL roof however also has a blemish but have been told it could be repaired. Placed an order anyway but will have it looked at next year
and see if anything can be done.

I can't see you getting much more than the GSR price though? Maybe a couple of hundred quid but then that's offset with removal/installation costs?
