F15 M50D front bumper damage Q

[AustraliaG20]

Hi all,

Unfortunately I hit a kangaroo today and have a few bits of damage and have a few questions. The fog light is broken completely and pushed in, the headlight washer is broken and pushed in, and the parking sensor near the tyre is completely pushed in. They're all inside the bumper itself. This is on the driver side (RHD), so left hand side looking at the car from the front.

Most bits look like they still work, so I'm wondering what might be the easiest way to access to fix / replace. Specifically, can I pull out the plastic guard bit down the bottom left and access it from there and is enough space to potentially fix? I can't see how it might come out - any ideas? I can't find a video online for the M50D... but some suggest it can be pulled out?

Otherwise through the wheel arch looks possible, but there is also damage there and with limited tools I'm not keen to touch it if I can help it

I will try a body shop / BMW, but I'm 1200km from home and need the car... and with Christmas I don't think I'll get anyone to fix it. I'll live with the other dents for now.

If it was me I would duct tape loose parts for now.
Please send pictures to see what that kangaroo did.
I feel your pain all the way from the UK, but at least we don't have kangaroos.

What's your goal--temp fix til you can get it into a bodyshop? It seems like it'd still be drivable in its current state for 1200km (or more). I'd leave it alone til I can get it into a shop

Thanks all, I ended up taking the wheel arch off and taping it all together. This included the parking sensor and fog light which I also used plastic glue on. I taped the windscreen washer but blocked off the hose as it was leaking.

I bent the mudguard trim back as best as possible and left the panel dents. It is booked in to be fixed properly in early February. So just have to put up with it until then.

I'm out and not on my phone, but will post photos in a bit.
