At least they have admitted it, I would be writing to the dealer principal to express my concerns that this clandestine repair can go on at his dealership without prior discussion with you the customer.
As previously mentioned I would want a written report detailing cause and repair method and confirmation that its meet BMW repair standards.
Has a similar incident on my x5 where a wheel was kerbed on a test drive after winter to summer wheel change, happened whilst avoiding another car. The workshop manager spoke to me immediately, showed me damage, apologised and advised that a new wheel and tyre where on order and would be with them in the morning (tyres had only done just over 1k miles) 4 wheel tracking carried out and report provided, lent a new x5 overnight and my car delivered back to me following day, no charge for anything.
Unfortunately accidents happen, but honestly and being upfront is paramount and I will therefore hesitate to use the dealer again.
