Crashed my baby, Need advice :(
So I wrecked my 335Xi in an extremely stupid way that I would rather not explain. Anyway, the cosmetic damage is pretty bad on the hood and the bumper. So I was wondering if it would be cheaper to buy a sick after market hood/bumper or to just replace them with OEM?

well, if you financed the car. then might aswell buy aftermarket. M3 reps bumper is only 350, hood prolly be 7-800. Buying oem you would need to get it painted anyways.

Yes I was gonna say I'm close to Pittsburgh so that's quite out of the way. The accident was just tonight, so I'm not sure what the insurance will pay but the car is preowned and not under a lease

I would find a bodyshop that you know and trust and see if they can get insurance to cover an aftermarket option that is the same value as oem. If not, like on my rear bumper, I had them pay for the stock bumper and covered the 250 dollar difference myself.
