I think it is almost a certainty that BMW will offer a 2019 or 2020 CS or CSL or GTS version of the M2 will all those CF panels installed from the factory. Why wouldn't they? No further development costs. Just additional revenue from a special model.

Thoughts?
I agree, but at what cost. The M2 "carbon fiber" edition could be $30k+ more. These parts are not cheap. Imho
