So here you go: front bumper, left headlight, hood, left fender and fender flair, possibly bent left lower control arm (if wheel took a hit too). AW 300 paint, alignment and labor. Probably around $8-9k top (I'm too lazy to google it, but all oem parts from bmw would be around $4-5k max and the rest $4k is labor). Question is who took the rest of $20k? Rhetorical question of course. Insurance companies and auto shops - that triple and quadruple every part and labor in their invoice books to make a fortune out of a relatively simple fender bender. It is how it is - can't fight them or change rules - just need to accept it and get used to it.
P.S. The work needed to put it back is about 20hours max + 3 days for paint job - what they were doing 2 months is beyond me
