At least one roof made it into the US via the dealer network but then BMWUSA caught on and restricted all CSL parts from import into the US. Even with a genuine vin you can't get CSL parts here in the US (ask me how I know). They took it one step farther and excluded all non-US parts under the excuse that they are not US DOT federalized for sale and therefor would open a can of liability worms. Every once in while you can sneak a harmless part into the system, but its rare. From my experience with NLA E30 SportEvo parts, BMW will wait for the request que to fill up to some critical mass and then reproduce a missing part. This happened with SportEvo rear spoilers in th past and more recently with Nagaro Silver 16in wheels. (After we found the wheels had become available again, some friends and I ordered a pallet full to put away!) |

Why do we even care? It's not as if any of us need a new roof? Does the OP have a CSL? why the need for a new roof?
If my CSL needed a new roof, it would probably be a wreck! |
