Learning by experience
I was fortunate the Certified BMW body shop fought to replace the damaged LKQ part (1st choice by liable insurance co) with an BMW OEM. The other driver insurance was very cooperative.
TO DO: Verify our insurance clause OEM versus LQK versus (Aftermarket CAPA "certified as good as OEM", Non-CAPA "copying part - STAY AWAY!")
and just in case we are not liable, let's hope the other drivers insurance will be cooperative and will support OEM
