Worst thing you can do.
Ask for an inspection asap. If you go to BMW, you'll end up with exactly the opposite of what you want... They'll jump on that repair and tell you they'll handle it, then bill the insurance company whatever they feel like...
-do you best to notice and write down any blemishes and damaged parts. Your wheel could be misaligned for exemple ($$), just say it pulls to the left, a steering wobble... whatever...
-get it inspected by the insurance and give "your" report of the damages to the guy doing it.
-Categorically refuse the first numbers the insurance company will give you
-Ask to "manage" the repairs yourself
-Then do what you need to do to put the car back in shape, managing your costs.
Only tips I can give you.
