As I understand it, no.

I have recently been in communication with Leica on this issue and had 
to deal with M8.Support@leica-camera.com  to get updates on my free 
filter order.  They told me that a third-party actually packs and ships 
the filters and thus Leica has no real control over the process.  This 
appeared to be true, since my filters did eventually arrive via FedEx 
from the third-party company in Wetzlar.

btw, if you are waiting on E46 black, good luck.  So far as I can tell 
no one in North America (including Leica) has them. If anyone knows to 
the contrary please let me know.
