Which is different than you in an official BMW dealer capacity trying to import them to a BMW parts dept via BMWNA. Apparently the same result, but I dont believe this was a duplicate of your same effort.
What I'm trying to say is that BMWNA will not step in. At least they told me they will not. No privateer or shop can purchase from BMWNA directly. BMWNA sells only to dealerships, who then may sell to privateers or shops. So, if BMWNA releases the part, I will sell them. If not, the privateer you need to purchase from will have to purchase from a dealership outside of the US.
