To CSL Bootlid or not to?

AWBimmer · 01-21-2014, 06:17 AM

... That is the question!

Currently I have a performance spoiler which is two toned - top half titanium silver and back part in panther black.

Starting to think about a CSL bootlid. Oh it'll be genuine and carbon fibre which if it happens I'll customise again And if so, the spoiler
Will be up for grabs.

Opinions please chaps/chappettes.

Personally I really like what you've got at the minute.
IMO CSL bootlids suit the E90 so much more than the coupe.

Alex.J · 01-21-2014, 06:28 AM

DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

richk84 · 01-21-2014, 06:36 AM

I would stick with what you have so far, looks great

AWBimmer · 01-21-2014, 06:43 AM

Lol! Uh ohhhhh I just opened a can of worms haha.

Hmmmmm good observations so far peoples

Adam I do know what you mean when you say it suits the e90 more but it also has a place on the coupe I'm sure!

Totally agree with Adam...

Maybe add a poll?

mob17 · 01-21-2014, 06:57 AM

I prefer how you have it now brother. Stop finding ways to spend money!!

skelts · 01-21-2014, 07:37 AM

I would much prefer the performance spoiler and that's coming from someone who had the csl bootlid. The spoiler has a higher kick.

Sparky68 · 01-21-2014, 07:48 AM

I thought you were selling it ?

AWBimmer · 01-21-2014, 07:57 AM

Keeping for another year or so sparky as new job in London means I'm happy to treat it more given it's a wknd car. Next will be an M I'm pretty sure

I kept my sensible hat and realised no point selling so quickly as touch wood I've had Zero problems with the car. Mechanically it's like brand new lol.

Sparky68 · 01-21-2014, 07:58 AM

Nice one, cant say i blame you. Better the devil you know mate.

Josh1a1h · 01-21-2014, 08:48 AM

NO to CSL Boot. Your car looks perfect as is...

If you want... do a custom bonnet

AWBimmer · 01-21-2014, 10:01 AM

Wow, didn't think CSL would get the stick this bad lol.
Josh I'm on the bonnet situation already.

I think on darker car it looks good but on lighter coloured cars I do like contrast of a carbon spoiler especially the performance one.

Hahaha come on Sam you should know better, I don't belong on this forum anymore

if people don't mind I may throw a few pics up on a build thread

Sam that's all your getting and you know it's not looking like this now too

DavS1 · 01-21-2014, 12:39 PM

Boot for my 92 just not sure where to go

achu · 01-21-2014, 04:54 PM
