Ahh.... don't remind me of that, is very sad everytime I see it. Still need to wait for the investigation before starting the repair as the advisor suggested.

Beside I think I need to go Bai Shan on that day, PM your cell phone number to me and I will call you if I don't need to go Bai Shan. Well it will be fun this time because there are M5's.

So you just go to the shop and buy the parts (Hamann) or do they install it for you too.

About 400km for a tank on mine! Primarly local driving, but swear to god, even if I don't drive Highway too much, I'll have the minimum traffic lights stop than anyone here... From my home to work, about 1/2 hour of driving, only about 1-3 red light stops... Not bad for local traffic, isn't it?

Judging from the pics you took for your car, you live in those rich place so of course no traffic lights. I live in the city so alot of stop and go traffic for me.

This is not true, just that I live in the off-the-city area...

Sorry to hear that...

For accident repair, I seldom go back to the dealer for repair! The reason is that, once you've took your car to BMW HK for repair, they'll have record. Meaning that, by the time you sell your car, your next owner is going to know your car had been in such an accident, and had that part repainted...

Well, there's always good and bad side for doing jobs outside dealer... For me, even I know people in the service department in BMW HK, I seldom go there for any jobs outside warranty coverage... (I think Bunbun wouldn't agree w/ me this time, right? )

Haha...actually I wanted to contribute but when I got to the Paypal page it stalled??? So AC S5, did u get your window decal after u contributed?

Regarding your car's damage, it is mostly on the bumper(s)? if so, u can use that as an excuse to upgrade to M-tech or other third party aero kits

Btw, my wife STILL hasn't notice the Mtech aero....haha. It's been almost 7 months now.
