Just got an update seems all the parts are in and she will be moving to paint this week. They think I may possibly have the car back next week but they still have to diagnose the extent of the suspension damage once the car is put together....

This is really depressing for me. Your accident was May 7th. That was over two months ago. If it takes that long to get my parts I wont get my car back until September.

It's horrible... I went and saw the car yesterday it's sitting in their outside lot without the rear windshield on, the inside has like an inch of dust in it and you can see rain drops on the leather, also all the parts they took off like the side mirrors and small trim pieces they just piled up on the front seats, not to mention there is an electrical part the fits inside the trunk that I guess was knocked out during the accident and since it's a new model they have no idea what it is and neither does the dealer.....

Don't worry

Same thing here. Lots of dust. Air vents, seat belts , head liner, and it was new. But they clean up nicely. Just tell them use water as the final wipe down. And don't be shy about pointing something out that is not up to your standard. These shops want to make things right.

Take a pic of the electrical part and post it. Someone here will know

Next time I go Ill snap a pic of it and put it up here. Does all the dust come out of the rear deck speakers, they have a ton of dust in them and I just don't want the speakers to get messed up.

The rear deck slides out and they blew it out. First time I turned on stereo I made sure I looked behind to see if dust came out. All clean. Then tested all speakers. That would be the least of my concerns though.

There is a reason why most shops don't want customers inside. Just be cool about it, ask questions, but know that it's a lot of messy work to restore a car. And they are going to give you back something that is clean and repaired properly, eventually. It may take time, but it will be worth the wait. I get mine back at noon today.

Sorry about the PMs. System said it erred.

Pics to prove it will clean up

I would not accept a car back dirtier then it was given to the shop. The air vents are the tough part. They have to q-tip them clean.

I will make sure the car looks as new as it was before I take it back, I'm sure they will do a good job they service all the BMW's from the dealer I bought the m235 from.

Well based on that it will be September before I get mine. Considering the $2000 a month to rent the C250, the cost to repair and DV they are only going to save $10000 or so from just having it totaled from the beginning.

Nope. I just spoke with them today and they are still waiting for the wiring harness and that mystery part they could not find. I did however find out what the mystery part was and it is no longer a problem but the car is painted and besides the rear bumper its put back together he said all they need is the harness and then it will be like a one hour job and it will be done so hopefully soon after all they ordered that part a month ago...

I'll finally be getting the car back tomorrow morning, thanks to bily for the checklist I'll be brining it with me tomorrow. Also over three months I've been stashing some mods away waiting and I'll put up a thread when it's all installed on Thursday a teaser of what's to come!

Will the remus be muffler only or have you done/doing other exhaust changes? I'd like to hear how remus sounds muffler only.
Post pics and vid when you complete install.
