Is there a bmw ews key programming (mail-in) shop in Portland I should use instead?

Does Maine vehicle inspection or emissions testing affect this service?
Maine requires an annual vehicle safety inspection statewide, with emissions testing in the Cumberland County area. Our service is bench module programming only — you remain responsible for your vehicle's compliance with all Maine and federal requirements.
Which BMWs use EWS instead of CAS?
EWS is on roughly 1995-2006 chassis like the E36, E38, E39, E46, E53, E83 and E85. From the E60/E90 generation onward BMW switched to CAS.
Can you do all-keys-lost, or do I need a working key?
Both. With a working key it's a straightforward add-a-key. With no keys at all we read the key data directly from the EWS on the bench and generate a fresh transponder.
