Why are there so few body kits for the 2 series?

I bought a non M-package 2 series with plans to modify the exterior with a body kit after the warranty expired, but there are too few body kits for me to choose from. Are there kits in the works, or are there reasons for the lack of mods?

I'm curious as to why are you waiting for the warranty to expire before doing cosmetic mods? What, if any, warrantied items are not covered after cosmetic mods?

I know that cosmetics don't affect the warranty but I would prefer to not have my dealer use that as a scapegoat in the event of something going wrong. Im trying to take a very cautious approach. I plan on doing some light mods in the near future but I wanted to wait before doing a body kit.
