Got my car back today!

[Metric1]

I got my BMW back from the shop today! I was going to store it away in a barn but I didn't put it away soon enough so I parked it in an alley way for the winter. So my car was parked in-between 2 houses, and over the Christmas holidays the house on the left caught on fire. My car was behind another car so there was no hope of getting it out. My car didn't suffer any physical burns, but it did have some heat damage to the plastics on the drivers side. I was really scared to get it fixed because I figured they would do a ****** job.

They replaced everything, and I can't even tell. Front bumper, both headlights, drivers-side door handles, mouldings, trim, rear bumper and tail lights. They also painted the drivers side of the car. They also replaced 2 tires, which means I have to replace the passenger side tires but I don't care because they were **** anyway.

I'll post a pic of her tomorrow, she's looking good!!!

I didn't see the pics when you posted your thread, I can't see them writing that off... unless your airbags deployed.. hopefully your hood is damaged so you get a free spray lol

mm, it's an old car so i reckon they'll just write it off. they normally do that with older cars over here.

That really sucks, I would probably just fix the light and leave the rest as-is.. It really sucks being without a car!!!
