If you want to get your car to look like a CSL, its getting much easier. The problem is that its almost impossible to get OEM CSL parts, as you have to provide a VIN to order them. Then you have to be in a place where CSL's are sold in the first place, aka not the US. :/
That said, if you want CSL looking parts, Turner Motorsports (TMS) sells a bunch of parts, front bumper, rear lid, even a CF airbox.

The things that are really different about a CSL are the CF roof (good luck on that), and the real brains behind the air-intake of the CSL. Its got a few hidden secrets as to how exactly it works and wont work nearly as it should if you managed to get one and bolt it on.
Id still like a CSL.

No it wasnt me. I just moved here from Colorado though, so Im still a new M to the area. I dont think Ill be modding the M like that anyway. Im putting money into a track car.

the CSL isnt federalized in the US. No federalization = no registration. Ive been trying to figure out a way to get one here, but even my attempt to say it was a kit car didnt work (i was going to take one mostly apart in German, and ship it here). You can buy it as a track only car though.........
