Yea it seems alright, might need to be buffed a lil but it looks fine. Im lucky he didnt hit the tailight. It looks like ill just have to replace the rear bumper. Im not sure about the PDC sensor he knocked off though..

i dont think insurance will give enough money for mtech bumper... unless it is ripped or cracked badly, they wont replace it... all they are going to do is just make body shop fix it and paint them...
ANY VENDORS HERE OFFER PRE LCI, WITH PDC, MTECH REAR BUMPERS? I cant find one anywhere other than online sites that look fishy..

Happy to hear that you are all right. Hopefully you'll get the M-tech out of this. Tell him that your neck is starting to hurt and the cure might be M-tech for the front, too.

Just went to BMW body shop and they quoted me $2300 for parts and labor 
Im not gonna sit around and wait for this guy.. Im gonna go through the insurance. I inquired about the Mtech Rear and they said it would be around $2500 which is crazy but whatever. Ill keep u updated
