That's "mostly cosmetic"? Do they realize the amount of electronics that sit in the front of the car? Make sure you get it fixed at a place that uses all OEM parts...nothing after market.

Yeah I agree. But luckily my girlfriend didn't bring her car to college so I'll be driving a 2005 325 with 174k miles for a few weeks

Hard to say, but it does not look like a cosmetic only damage.

Are the headlight housings intact?
Is the bumper support beam fixable?
How about the lower sub-frame?
The A/C compressor is another big repair item that can bring the total bill of repairs closer to 75% or more of the value of your car.
I assume the airbags didn't deploy.

P.S. If I am not mistaken you are one of the younger drivers, I would highly recommend attending a professional driving school, join the BMWCCA if not already and attend a few driving clinic events, etc.

You've got some bad luck, kid. Well maybe you can tie your throttle issue in with this and get everything fixed in one shot :)
