Realised I'm missing a pair of these for the car.
Are they alloy for the CSL or thin gauge steel?
If anybody has a pair please let me know.

Usually thin guage steel. After market ones in GRP are available on German ebay
Pretty sure they are alloy on all e9? These guys in Poland offer repro alloy ones - no idea how much 350.00zt come out at though! http://sklep.manufaktura-workshop.p...zaslepki-przedniego-pasa-nad-lampami-komplet/
Walloth Nesch has the knurled screws for the covers.
Mine are definitely steel. That is unless Karmann
rust is powerful enough produce iron oxide on aluminum.
ah, maybe I was thinking about the fuel filler door.. Thinking about it - the covers on my donor 3.0CSA were utterly disintegrated so that should have been my first clue...
Filler door is definitely some type of cast non ferrous lightweight metal
CSL headlight covers on my RHD csl are alloy.
Jaymic has them in alloy.

Mine are also alloy but they may have been replaced in a former life, probably at the same time as the sill (rocker) covers were replaced with alloy ones.
