CSL Bootlid

I have seen slight differences in the identity numbers on OE CSL bootlids as well as construction difference - 1 piece versus 2 pieces bonded together? any insight appreciated!

Believe the SMC lids to always be two piece unless somebody has bought and filled /smoothed surface during colour matching to a standard M3 colour?

Inconsistant weight will prob be a dead give-away of a copy?

If i remember always made in Italy.

Unsure of difference you show regarding part number markings?

Anybody know much else?

Show a photo of the mount surface inset nut and key hole - easiest way to tell if it is a replica.
