Well got my car back yesterday.
Here are the pics of the car when it was stripped. Bearing in mind this area was supposed to have been done in 2007/08  Hole3 by evs.gaz, on Flickr Hole by evs.gaz, on Flickr Hole2 by evs.gaz, on FlickrBMW do not do repair panels so the bodyshop had to fabricate their own.  Repair10 by evs.gaz, on Flickr Repair11 by evs.gaz, on Flickr Repair8 by evs.gaz, on Flickr Repair7 by evs.gaz, on FlickrThe jacking points were goosed as well. So new ones were also fabricated  Repair4 by evs.gaz, on Flickr Repair by evs.gaz, on Flickr Repair1 by evs.gaz, on FlickrRepair4 by evs.gaz, on FlickrThe car was MOT'd today and a new battery fitted. I have spent a bloody fortune on it in the past 3 months. Fooking cars |

There is no way the government would allow me anywhere a welder for public safety worries. LOL
The finish/repair I have been assured will be invisible |

Buy a welder and gear and learn how to weld. Works out much cheaper in the long run. I would want a factory finish for that much wonga.
