I browsed through some of the other sites that I remembered seeing them at and they weren't available on them either. Well Ricky Bobby and I were chattin and he talked to his local dealer who did a nationwide parts search and came up with one left in the whole country. So if you were planning to buy one I'd suggest contacting the place first before ordering if they still have them on their store, because like getbmwparts they may not have updated the store.

Dan is correct, unless you are looking through a parts store that already has a spoiler, there should be no more left in the country. My local dealer scoured the parts inventory in the country, found one in stock at BMW of Newport RI. I forwarded info to Dan, and he ordered. My local dealer confirmed the part is discontinued and no longer available from BMW North America.
I'll either try to get a used one down the line or do a 4.6is front/rear, although I am not usually a fan of "performance model" body kits on a non performance model 3.0 engine. A big reason why the oem skid plate spoiler is perfect for 3.0 guys. Enjoy Dan, I want pics when it's on your truck!
