My Ride: 545i Sport Package, Black/Grey. Got it July 09.

Pretty much as the title says. Was bumped pretty hard by a Nissan Frontier, not as much damage as I expected. 
My mufflers look a little retarded though.

Be aware of exhaust damage from the impact. My friend experienced a light hit from behind and later found damaged couplers and pipe bends in the entire system. Might look small now but that pipe runs all the way to the front and hangs on rubber doughnuts most of the way. Swing swing..

Thanks for the advice.
But wouldn't it make some kind of awkward exhaust note if it were damaged to indicate exhaust leak or something?
