$1300 for bent lower control arms!

pintsize · 02-03-2010, 06:35 PM

So I just brought in my car into BMW cause i was having vibrations at 60mph+ and found out that 3/4 lower control arms (everyone except passenger side) were bent as well as the rims. I have no idea how this happened, but im guessing it was all them huge potholes around this city. Total cost is gonna be $1300. Does that sound right to you guys? or can I get them fixed somewhere else for cheaper? I guess for that price I might as well claim insurance ($1000 deductible).
