Again, if anybody has any recommendations for some body shops in the OC please help me out. Especially shops that would pull some strings and make it possible for me to easily get that mtech bumper.. (sideskirts wouldn't hurt

)

Sorry for all the noob questions, but I'm new to this so I'm not really sure how it works. I would really appreciate anyone's help, thanks!

Read post #16 and give Wayne a call. He's the owner of the shop and will take care of you.

When you go in for an estimate, don't forget to ask for genuine BMW parts. I would also ask if you'll be able to tell that the car was repaired after they are done. The answer should be no and if you can tell, they'll "make it right".

Thank God no one got hurt.
Be safe everyone.

No good Chris... really sucks! Glad to hear that you're okay and car will be repaired.

I use Spectrum Collision, so feel free to take it to them as well.

fu*k bro, im sorry, that sucks.

That plastic is the resovior for the turn signal fluid. Looks like he did you a favor since it looks like you were bone dry there

Hey, it's a car, nobody was hurt, it will be fixed in a bit. What was teh posted speed for the construction zone? 40 in a 25 might get you some of the blame.

yup.. ended up taking my car to spectrum. i'll be ordering the mtech front bumper sometime this week hopefully, still waiting for the estimate to be finished.

I got my M-Tech rear installed at Spectrum after an accident and Boost did the same thing with his front.
