Insurance estimate puts it over their limit and they want to write it off. Not happening. I'll wade through the insurance appraisal nonsense, get the value raised and see what I can get to get it repaired. So silly - this thing is mechanically in great shape, tight, rides and sounds awesome.
Sorry to hear the bad news LVP. That is my worst fear on both of my aging BMW's. Both are immaculate and 2 of the nicest E46 and E53 out there but insurance thinks they are worth low blue book.

I think when I converted the front and rear 4.8iS bumpers and flares it exceeded the value of my X5 by 100%.
