Default Wife involved in fender bender; looking for advice.

She's ok, car is not. Late model M3 convertible crossing traffic clipped the front end moving bumper 2"-3" to the right and creasing the passenger's side front fender. Fan makes weird noise and headlamps are way out of alignment. Front end "mods" include StonGard and Bumper Plugs. Any suggestions on replacement bumper other than OEM without license plate holes drilled? Insurance co. going to have any problems paying for new install of StonGard?

What a crummy Monday. Kicker is that we just picked up Sat. from 30K service and had a road trip planned this weekend.

Insurance co. will pay for StoneGuard and all other mods which you made and are out of pocket for.
