Just bought my new 2022 X3 with the M Performance package (or whatever package gives you the upgraded body for the xDrive30i) and was rear ended while sitting at a red light.

Not only did this happen in April and I've had a vehicle with a dangling muffler since April 29th, the car is hardly drivable and one SINGLE part is not available currently and potentially won't be until "sometime in June" according to the Certified BMW repair center I'm working with.

The only part they cannot get is the lower rear bumper piece w/trailer hitch. I cannot understand the fact that this doesn't come with an entire bumper assembly but I've learned to quit questioning.

Does anyone have any suggestions/recommendations on what to do about this? I'm distraught that I can't drive my vehicle and that it might be in the shop for months. I'm to the point now that I'd buy an aftermarket carbon fiber one just to get this done and over with but I can't even find one of those…
