2008 x3 Bumper

[reynoldsenator]

I really pulled a munson, backing out of my garage in my x5 i bumped into my mothers rear bumper on her 2008 x3. i created a minor crease in her bumper i was going about 3 mph and it probably needs to be replaced does anyone know how much this is going ding me for? The X5 receive a minor scratch I didn't realize the bumper cover on the x3 was vinyl. Thanks in advance for your help.

There are three different bumper covers; the standard, the aero, and the M Sport. All are listed by Realoem as being under $800. They are shown as coming primed, so you need to add painting to match the car, and installation, to that.

Thanks JCL, you are always very helpful and insightful. I appreciate your time and advice you are usually spot on.

Dusting off an older thread here... and I'm sure you've probably already gotten this fixed, but my wife did almost the same exact thing in our X3 last fall. And I actually decided to let her drive the car through, just in case... well, just got it fixed and it came to about $2300. Hers was the M-Sport package with PDC sensors in the rear bumper (at about $200-300ea, I heard), although I think she was going a little quicker than 3mph. Anyway, they're certainly pricey to fix, thats for sure...
