Rear seat without the console

Don't get me wrong, I think the CSL is a wonderful car in many respects ... but the stupid cheap plastic rear console that BMW put in this car irrates me. Add that stupid easily scratched coated paint and a bit of OCD in an owner like me I break into sweat each and everytime somebody steps into the back seat, fearing they'll accidentally put too much weight on the console and crack it (as they do) or scratch off the paint coating and then I'd have to cough up over 500 pounds just to replace it!!!

So I did the next best thing

That's a spare standard seat bench I had ... I just recovered it with a brand new rear CSL seat cover ....

Now I can sleep at night knowing the seat bench with the console is safely stored away ..

I think I need help. Although I actually think the rear looks better without the console!!
