when I imported my '01 Z3M last summer, I just sent in my CarFax Report (that I got from the dealer down there) that showed there were no O/S recalls in with my paperwork and they accepted it!
FYI, I also bought a kit for $35 CDN to do the daytime running lights. BMW wanted $600. Took me 3 hours. If you know what you are doing, it would take less than one.
