Pete,

Its not NYC, lets face it, it can happen anywhere, get a grip.

If I were you, depending on the damage, perhaps some touch up paint might be just enough, or I would definitely consult the best paint/body guy in your area. You might try calling BMW Car Club of America and see who they could recommend.

Don't worry, I know how you feel, been there before, when I use to drive a Porsche and always stayed away from those damn Trucks, or nowadays, its big SUV's!!

Good Luck!

Ronin
Damn NYC roads! Went to Long Island through NYC, got a very small paint chip (no ding) on center of hood! (One of the reasons I don't like to go down there to visit family). And to boot, I just had an Autobahnd clear bra put on the day before I left (which btw, looks awesome! Gotta look hard to see).

Anyway, what to do w/chip? I want to repair/protect car (although you really gotta look hard to see the chip.)What's the best way to handle it?

Thanks, Pete

BTW- I saw a hacked X5 down there made into a stretch limo (Alpine white). Thought it looked pretty ugly. Also, I saw A LOT of X5's down there!(More than anywhere else I've seen)
