Yeah it's gone but the tow guy scatched the bumper while prying the cap with a screw driver.

What an idiot, does he not know how to properly open it. It dosn't even come out in that direction.

It looks like a standard issue while towing e60s. Its simple and easy (its in the manual as well). Make sure that you open the cover panel for the tow guy..

I got my car back.the tail light was leaking, so the water got collected around the battery. Also if you guys see the plastic peeling on the doors, asked for it to be replaced, it's covered.
