The truck that hit me was a commercial vehicle -- called a Freightliner. The bumper on it hit right in the middle of my trunk lid. And the car was not all that dirty -- quite clean, actually. I adjusted the gamma on those pics way up to bring out some more of the detail -- they weren't nearly that bright when I took them. Here's what Classic BMW Collision Center estimated needs to be done:

Their total is $3825.74 for everything including tax. He said it could be $5-$6k once they tear it down. I still have yet to hear from the adjuster.
Most of it makes sense to me, but not all of it. Anyone else more familiar with the terminology?

Yeah, I took a second look and it looked fine to me too...At first glance, the car is so dirty I was shocked and thought that the fenders needs to be replaced as well.
Still, if it had impacted the bumper the repairs would be much less.
