New quarter panel looks great. The shop did leave some adhesive on my door and the carpet that goes behind the battery cover near the quarter panel/bumper was all ripped up and hanging and obviously in the wrong place, but I'm not gonna complain about all that stuff because it seems minor and I didn't have to pay anything. Overall pretty happy with the work and paint matching, orange peel, etc.
Thanks for all your help!

Glad to hear. Question: did your dealer go to bat for you or did you have to contact BMW NA and argue for approval?
