Hey guys, have not gotten the work done yet as I am still deciding where to do it. My local dealer has a body shop, but in truth I have used them before and feel they are crap.
The adjuster gave my $1250 for the repair, which he assured me included a new m-sport bumper, subject to negotiation when I get the work done. I am pretty sure parts, like bumpers, come the germany unpainted and I am concerned about the finish quality, so I am going to take my time before I pick a shop. There is another dealer nearby that I intend to call this week.

thats cheap, i had paid 900yuros for a stock bumper just this summer. Allthough it was for an e90, but that should only make it cheaper.

That is good advice on asking for a pre-finished bumper, I will try that.
Also, I do think the adjuster is off on his parts pricing, but he swears that he got the numbers from a local dealer and it was for an '13 m-sport. I am not buying it, but we shall see.

Just got my quote back, $1,000 for a rear bumper. Apparently, that's substantially lowered because my friend owns the shop doing the work though, so probably closer to $1500 if you have rear sensors and whatnot like mine does.
