My flippers that I ordered last week.

Interesting, they are the original design 2 hole variety.
They seem to have a manufactured date of 13/11/12.

Those are the new style ones - you can tell by the lower lip on the top and the new BMW sticker (not made in Slovenia).

More photos of the single piece lip on my spare bumper.

in this photo you can see the gap:

Not a bad solution NZM3. Do they still afix in the same way as the individual flippers? I take it that overall it also means that the front bumper sits lower to the ground. I only ask as my flippers scrape as I come off the drive onto the pavement and onto the cambered road

Sorry mate, a Ford in a BMW M3 CSL forum bores me to death.
Even the ladies Mark is posting are more refreshing

Is there an agenda here

Bit boring now tbh Alex.

Mike IS an enthusiast, shit driver, but loves cars. Please give him a break.

The guy only asked a few questions and it now seems he is enemy no1.

And sometimes, a pic and vid here and there of other marques/models is quite refreshing. Afterall the CSL only came in 2 colours and Im sure we have all seen loads of pics of each. (not that I tire of looking at the CSL, but you get my point)

Love all round please
