There are at least as many shops here in SoCal, where customizing cars is a way of life. So, shopping around is definitely a good idea. Some shops are prone to charging the "BMW tax" (charging more to customers who drive cars better than a Honda or Hyundai)
Haha I totally agree. I have maybe a dime size dent on my trunk lid near the emblem. I wanted to get a estimate for dent removal and when the guy was walking to my car with me he said "Oh a BMW? They make these really good it going to be little harder to get that out. " I just said ok and left lol
