Thank you @giannicsl. Your car is perfect!

One of the things that I would like to learn more about. It has been discussed a bit. In what cases were the front bumper mounting holes sealed up? Most carb CSL's have no bumper holes, but the CSL cover with the car CSL does. My theory on that is because the CSL on the cover was a prototype (with many prototype parts including the Alpina wheels that @giannicsl has). This picture is my lock screen background on my phone, so I see it a lot. :)

Then I see other non-city pack cars like yours, presumably injected with no bumper holes. Do you have an early 2275 car?

hi Marcos,
good question

I can tell you about my model, but not about others similar or co numbering before or similar to mine (2275xxx)
it was from my grandfather who took it new on the parallel market with specifications without city packs
bmw italia in the early 70s was in full commercial explosion
also for the beautiful 02 and E3 SEDAN
, strangely placed little importance on CSL
preferring CSIs
mine was restored in 2009
not out of necessity, but out of my mania for perfectionism
I can tell you that it was born like this, as in the photo,
me in 1990 when my grandfather gave it to me
I messed it up heavily
for the tastes of the time ....
I spent a lot. to restore everything
I bought over time the 14 alpina in 3 pieces
and the steering wheel
I sold them for a radio exchange and different circles
madness of a twenty year old boy with a lot of ignorance

I can add that mine was bought from a new dealer in Rome
called gianni Welich
ers an affiliated bmw dealer
my grandfather also took the e3 3.0s.i from them.
I relied on family photos for the restoration and to put all things back in their place
, but also to the great gurus
YANNICK, 2275XXX and others that are true encyclopedias of the bmw e9 world
