Niko se matiasane!!! Kremase kana mati... hahahaha. Sorry to joke but I have to try and lift your spirits. At the end of the day you are ok and now perhaps you can get the M aero kit bumper. That will totally make your car officially the sickest e60 in Greece!!!
I met the insurance's expert today at the dealer. The estimated cost of the repair (parts and labour) is much more higher than the ///M aero packet cost (unpainted).
With a dealer's trick of course
So, my compensation is a complete repair of the damage, plus a whole ///M aero kit.

Don't do it, please

The guy with the Renault was an undergraduate, and the day after the crash he had an examination, so I wished him good luck and take care when you hold the wheel at your hands.

It will look stunning with those rims

Holy cow...bad luck there nicke60gre. Hope the repair process goes smoothly.

I had the same thing happen to me 3 years ago. Some college kid hit my E46 from behind. Pain in the "butt" and I wasn't happy with the repairs. I ended up trading in my beloved E46 a couple of weeks after getting my car. It just didn't feel the same and I was not happy with it anymore .

Bummer about your car Nick but it looks like you'll be as good (or better) than new once you get the new stuff installed.

I had pretty much the same damage to mine a while ago and it was a pretty painless (bumper, PDC, and exhaust tips) repair. The car did exactly what it was supposed to do and there was absolutely no damage to any metal surface...

Sorry to hear that Nick...
Don't forget to post some pics once the M-tech kit is installed.

Good news about the //M kit Niko!

I assume there was no damage beyond the bumper cover?
