Looks like I need to replace the cross member (rear cradle) in my '07 530i. Since, I don't have any BMW Certified Repair Center anywhere nearby, does anyone know a reputable shop in NJ that would be able to get that done?

NJ is a small state but not knowing what part of the state you live ?????? Motor Works West in Wyckoff, NJ is great!

So I went to BimmerClinic, they told me to visit Garden State Auto (Certified BMW Repair Center) first, before they take up on such expensive job. Garden State Auto sent me to Edison BMW to do underbody measurements. They told me that all they can do is an alignment (laser measured), but not until next week, since they are booked for this week.
Now, I already have had an alignment done, that was the reason I wanted to replace the rear suspension, since that was the only thing the technician at the local shop could pinpoint to why is the rear wheel off.
Can someone tell me what or who else should I try?! I am down in central NJ ( close to Freehold )

Yes, I have had nothing but good experiences with JMK BMW, speak to Claudio or Jacob in service they'll take care of whatever problem you have. Explain to them and the shop forman what exactly the problem is they'll take care of it.
