Dad reversed my E90 into a pillar !!!!! (Missing Reverse sensor)

[Melwyn]

Hey Folks,

Last week my Dad reversed my E90 into a pillar at home and it cost me $280 to patch back my rear bumper

Also, in the process, one of the rear reverse sensors dropped out and broke. Do i have to replace the whole bumper, the whole set of sensors or just one sensor?
The car's computer system seems to have disabled the parking sensors too :/

Any ideas what I need to replace? PML told me to go in for a check/order for my reverse sensors. Apparently it costs $187 and takes 2-3 weeks for the parts to reach..

A really depressed owner

Just to let you guys know.. *if any get into the same unfortunate situation

Its $187 for the missing sensor + $100 for labour + $10 for the re-spraying of one reverse sensor. *grumbles* at PML.

Cheers
