Hey guys, I bought two weeks ago an M3 CSL and I found the seat fabric is not the original, and I would like to find the original fabric reflex / anthrazit Amaretta . I called bmw, but is very expensive.
I put a picture of the fabric that now bears the car. You can tell me where I can find it?
thanks

Did anyone ever find a source for the "right" material. The main side seat covers are NLA now.

So a couple of things I have found this week:


BMW no longer have any stock of seat covers, front or back
I found the manufacturer of Amaretta in Germany and they advised that the fabric was discontinued some years ago and won't be manufactured again.


I am now trying to find a source for the Aranthacite Reflex material used for the inserts.

I don't know who you are referring too, but it is probably Alcantara they are using.

This is who I contacted in Germany and they said that colour was discontinued years ago, hence no stock at BMW.

I haven't been able to find a supplier for the Reflex insert material. I think it was also used in the E60?

I am in Australia and didn't know about them.

Looking at them they are using Alcantara not Amaretta as was originally used.

I would like to know where to source their Reflex (patterned) seat inserts.

Look at the center inserts, that looks like the same fabric on our OE CSL seats

Yes it is and they say in the web page that they have a "limited" amount left, so I doubt they will sell any of it.
