You're not supposed to reverse into a 'bush'... you're supposed to go in forwards!
(Sorry about the damage tho).

Don't worry about. I still have damage from an Austrian boulder from about 2 years ago on mine! How we manage to do these things with parking sensors and even a camera amazes me :

I'd try a local dealer, their body shop will be able to do it or they'll recommend someone who does their smart repairs.

That doesn't sound too bad, in and out on the same day or do they need it over night to cure the paint?

Sounds like they'll be taking the bumper off then.

man maths required.. tell her indoors you got a quote but the dealer said the scratch has significantly increased the risk of a crash and that you need to upgrade to an M3 saloon which is more safe

My son reversed my Z4 into the neighbours car.
The damage to my rear bumper was significantly worse than yours plus they had to fit a metal plate/guaze to repair the crack in the bumper. All in I paid 220 pounds at the local Chips Away. I was well chuffed with the repair. I'd use him again.
