A more fundamental question - why do you need to run BGP to existing
site ?

Do you not just need to run an IGP (via GRE tunnel( for inter-AS
traffic ?

I have 2 locations (2 routers BGP using the same AS): A and B.
On each site I have separate BGP upstream links to at least 2 peers
(on each site), so in fact, those routers are using the same AS but
are announcing different prefixes. I just have done my internal
assignement: prefix X is used in location A, and prefix Y in B.

It's done this way to provide my customers Internet using my PI
adresses on each location. Now, because routers A and B use the same
AS, so, I need iBGP session to reach prefix X (announced by A) from B,
and vice versa. My AS is'nt big enough to make some internal traffic
policy so I just need some way to reach my prefixes between sites.
Unfortunetly, I have very poor direct leased link between those
sites.

I have to change it, and I am thinking of alternative solutins, for
example:
- make iBGP session between A and B using GRE over Internet (if
possible)
- use allowas-in to receive prefix X on router B through foreign peers
(normaly BGP blocks prefikses originated from own AS).

I don't know if my english is precise enough but I tried to explain
situation as good as I can.
The question is: "what solution is better?"

Regards,
Jarek
