My question here is can you orders the serial ind paints such as tanzanite blue and ametrin as a special order since theyre no longer "standard" upgrades on the 40i? Also, if I want a true individual paint such as Grigio Telesto how would I go about having that put on my build since I cannot send a build with it to the dealer? Does he have to manually go in and put in the color code?

Your sales associate could submit your build with special request for TB2 or Ametrin but the Individual Manufaktur special paints program for X5/6/7 SAVs were specifically for 490 paints and not serial paints (SABI / Priority 1).
Not all dealers or SA's are knowledgeable on the Individual program for BMW.
Your SA will need to reach out to BMWNA ordering (previous process) or factory ordering to submit documentation and details required for your special paint order. There's a lead time of around 11 weeks and $5K for paint. You'll need to confirm your spec and I'm sure your dealer will require some time of commitment. Once ordered your are locked in - so make sure sure that the paint you're requesting is the one.
