Has anyone heard anything on the bilstien backorder? I have been waiting for my shocks and struts for the e30 for a few months. I have heard they are moving to a new factory and will hopefully be shipping end of this month but can not find any updates on progress.

Maybe the species that communicate with each other through a filter of your comfort are less evolved that the ones that just communicate? Maybe your problems are your own to deal with and maybe the public giving a shit about your feelings is a one way ticket to extinction.

I haven't heard anything new.
Ordered rear shocks back in March, my supplier said backorder was 2-3 months from that time. After that order was placed, I reached out to numerous other BMW parts suppliers... all told me they're backordered.
I should've done some research first, countless threads/discussions about this issue. Apparently most people's inventories dried up in Dec-Jan (this is for ALL Bilstein shocks/struts btw...not just BMW specific ones). I've heard "late April" rumored a few places.. which is almost inline with what my supplier said.
At this point I'd be lucky if I even got them by May.
Apparently they've moved central factories or warehouses or something major that's caused this.
