Pulled out today of work (crossing two lanes to go east on Golf Rd in Glenview IL.) and once I got into the median, there was a guy driving a BMW 528i in the median and he smashed into the front driver side of my xB.
It ripped off a nice chunk of the bumper, pushed everything in on that side and bent my quarter-panel out about 4-5 inches (which popped out my corner lights) My grille and ground effects were just dangling off.
It was totally his fault for driving in the median and I couldn't see him b/c of a huge truck that was in front of me, so I am hoping that everything will be squared up in my favor.
I hit my head on my driver-side window but it just gave a headache (I hope). I guess the only good thing about all of this is that I will get a new bumper with no holes drilled in it yet. (from the dealerships putting the plates on)
Where can I get that license plate bracket for my bumper so they won't have to drill?

E-Ba. Iv seen one that you would not of to re drill the front holes. I think it mounts to the left side like a bB. I am not shure if it is a real JDM part? :D

Not to downplay your misery, but your car looks damn good considering a 528i nailed it. Looks like it held up quite well. How fast was he going? Hope your head feels better. That sucks having to deal with junk like that.
