Is there a way that this could work out? My car is mystic blue. I was thinking that since the whole car is repainted that it wouldn't be obvious that it's been repainted. GEICO pushes their recommended shop, but I can go anywhere and while the shop seems knowledgeable about dent repairs, they don't specialize in repainting luxury cars (more of the honda/toyota crowd).
I'd really can't trade-in right now. The car looks ugly and I'd probably take more than a $6k hit because I have 5k plus miles and hail damage. Unfortunately, I'm also in San Antonio, which isn't a mecca for BMW repair. What would you guys do?

You should work through your dealer - that way you will get a BMW approved shop and have resource (through your dealer) for any problems.
