My Ride: E60 "Stripper" Now C6 "Stripper"
Talking

This is why i am aggressively looking for a good backup / rearview camera can anyone recommend one?

The best i could find was the Hitchcam or Unicam (fits flush/replaces the keyhole lock entirely).

Anyone know of a good airbrush guy in the NY/NJ area?

Called my local ChipsAway, who repaired it and painted it - 100% , I can't see the repair.

I also had a small scuff on one of the alloys, he did that as well!! also 100%

Its a franchise operation, so you should have a local guy.

Chipsaway have moved on from just painting the chips then? I called them and they said I would have to take the car to them. Apparently anything under ?120 you have to go to them.

Ha ha ha. My rear bumper is unscathed and ok right now.

Some mopes just try and "squeeze" in when you're not lookin' inevitably scraping or scratching others' bumpers including their own.

I'm looking for a good place in the NY/NJ area and i keep hearing good things about Tommy G at JMK BMW, Lomag probably knows of him?

Hummm rear bumper is "ok for now" what about the front?

And the mope that tries to squeeze in scrapping others bumpers "including their own" who would that be?

Very funny..... I wouldn't use my E60 for any demolition derby. Thanks for the "razzing" "ribbing".

I have a 2nd car which is a beater but i don't use it to rub up on anyone.

I feel your pain. See my post in the lounge. Once you get it taken care of, you'll feel a lot better. I haven't even washed my car since it got hit. I turn it into the body shop on the 11th. Good luck with the repairs.
