BMW E46 M3 CSL Style Front Bumper V2. The Status Gruppe CSL front bumper has gotten even better. Here are some things you will notice about the Status Gruppe V2 CSL bumper: There is now a built in reinforcement/mounting just like the OEM CSL,   We now have added some vertical adjustment allow for better fitment of the bumper overall, The side clips are now built into the bumper (so no need to remove the clips from the OEM bumper), we have also have improved the production and mold to be better trimmed for overall improved fitment. And like our original CSL Bumper they have a completely different front CF splitter system than OEM and hold up better to elements and higher speed driving conditions.

  • Standard CSL Version (with one single intake hole)
  • Our CSL Bumper 1 Piece CF Lip and CF Splitters  will ONLY FIT The Status Gruppe CSL-Style Front bumper.
  • Our CSL bumper is a direct fit for aluminum bumper equipped M3 (2001 and early 2002)
  • If you have a Kevlar Bumper equipped M3 (Late 2002- 2006) you will need the parts listed below.
  • The V2 Bumper is still made from FRP or Fiber-reinforced Plastic.
  • FRP is widely used in Automotive applications mainly because of it excellent Strength, weight savings, and Elasticity.
  • Currently the Photos on the website are not of the new V2 bumper but we will be adding them as soon as possible

 

Note about surface Finish: The Surface of the bumper may have imperfections, FRP Bumpers will need to be filled, sanded,  primed and Prepped for Paint,  as they are not intended to be left raw and will need priming and painting. Also please note that the photos on the website are of a filled, sanded, primed bumpers, as well as painted bumpers to show examples of the finished product. The photos also add visual contrast for the carbon fiber splitters and race lips. The Bumper may come black in color.
