maybe im just stupid probably but i think that looks like the front

[WardJ]

+1

looks like you would spend the money for the unit (100-400)

and shop fees unless you put it in yourself

then there is the problem that it might/probably will look better than the other side

[///M Power]

Probably like $200 for that bumper + $300-400 for paint + fog lights + 1 new corner (tab prolly broken) + 1 new headlight

so just as a guess $650-700

This is the perfect opportunity to upgade to a e36 M3 front bumper. Much more styling and agressive.

you're are brave for posting this, hope everyone's quotes has helped you out

[kyle_baker]

how fast were you going when you hit it? looks like it caught it pretty hard, lol, but liek they said upgrade to an m-front end! perfect time!

[bimmer3214]

im still confused about the whole thing if you backed into the fance why is the front screwed up

[thekid]

looks like he was backing up and turning and hit the fence with the corner of the car... just what it looks like to me. uh... yeah I would agree with the $600ish+ area. But that's just from a quick look at the pics. Hope you know how to do body work.

Looks like you needed to paint or get a new bumper anyway.

any mre pics of passenger front area? you might just be able get off wiht just repairing this bumper and not havign to buy a new on altogether. Although paint may still be required.

is the noce panel piece broken under the corner light?

Sorry to say but that is a lot more than 600ish... at least double if not more. The parts alone will cost over $600 (fender, nose panel, bumper). Do not buy any cheap after market (from taiwan) parts. THey fit like shit and look even worse (ask me how i know).. THen you got paint and installation, easily another $600. Just to paint my M3 bumper (off the car, not including installation is $300-$350).. I'd give that a rough estimate of $1500- def. an insurance job

damn, everything is so expensive in other states...like i said in another post...i am glad to be mexican and live where i do...im right on the border to mexico...even here in the valley (south tx) labor is so cheap and they do a pretty damn good job too...labor for that would be about 250 bucks...less in mexico
