that will be a lot.. if you notice to the bottom, there will be paint work as it is scratched. Your clips on the bumper are also broken which means possibly a new bumper. In case you haven't figured it out by now.. BMW/any german car body work is expensive. What seems deceiving minor is always expensive.

That is not small. Probably cheaper to get new fender which is $233. Check prices here . Painting can be another $200 or more. Get an estimate from a local body shop. Members here can suggest a local body shop.

your talking about being jinxed.....1st time i was driving down this little road near my house and the paper bag rolled out from the yard and bam lots of noise thuds etc i get out turned out it was a rock in the bag how weird huh? well i had only 1500 miles at the time and the front tire rant it over the coner and bouched it under the right rear and the rock ripped the tire open...2nd time i was on the highway and i saw some pple in front of me changing lanes and then i heard it a thud and i didnt think of it much. I got home i look out and the same spot as your dent except mine was right near the end of the light and it was too late to write down teh flat bed trucks number down and 3rd time, it was a rainny day and i was ready to drive across this 4 lane road and i was stopped near a stop signt and i went across to find out that the road was 5 feet to the left of my position i swerf and i miss the first big commercial sign and then bam i see a small brick structure comming up and i was like OHH F>>>> me and of coures i hit that and demolished what ever that small builing was....turned out it was a mail shed thinggy any how 4th time after i got the car all fixed up spent about 6,000 doing it. my mom drives it to a church cookout thing and she gets back and the next morning on the right side looks like just like ure bumper its a bit scuffed up and thank god and knock on wood that has been the end of my bad luck street. So, dont worry things will be back to normal before you know it.

so you're going to let the stealer steal from you ... how much extra effort does it take to drive to the bodyshop?
