tex phil - I am probably going to pay it myself. Want to keep my no claims bonus. Makes a huge difference to someone my age, 23, with an M5 on insurance! Without my no claims bonus, i'd be paying nearer ?6k or ?7k to insure her!! Thanks bud (about the vid)
DKNewYork - I would replace them for new wheels, but i am waiting a little longer. I want to keep the stock wheels anyway as i need them in the winter months here as i won't want the new wheels on then.

Damn...I hate to hear it. Sorry for what must have been a lousy day.
I still recall the day i curbed my Infiniti G35 coupe (several cars ago before I got on the BMW wagon), and I literally thought all day that I was going to puke in the trashcan at work over just 3" of curb rash. I cant imagine how you felt.
But alas, its on the way to being repaired, and it sounds fairly mundane.
Besdies, how could you ever be down...you have an M5....you lucky bastard!
