"I bet you wildly underestimate the extent to which I adore Bright Eyes."

Gramatically.
And if not could you tell me how to alter it?

Why are you capitalizing Bright Eyes? Is that someone's name? If not, then don't capitalize.

Is this to a friend?

If not, then say 'grossly' underestimate--wildly kinda doesn't go.

I bet you that you wildly underestimate the extent to which I adore Bright Eyes. I like it like that better but when I put that sentence on word there were no grammar problems.

Your perception wildly underestimates the extent to which I adore bright eyes.

It makes sense. Wildly is not needed, though. If you removed "wildly" you would get the same effect. If Bright Eyes is a movie or a title it's fine just the way it is.

I have problems with the wildly part but without it, the impact is lessened.

There's a subtle difference in what we can get away with in spoken or written structure. If it's written how about,
You would have to scour the depths of your imagination to fathom my adoration of 'Bright Eyes'.

If Bright Eyes is a music band, then it should be Bright Eyes is a band, not Bright Eyes are a band.

But the sentence ur asking me to scrutinize is totally acceptable

OK.
You have mispelled "sentence" and "sense".
If Bright Eyes is a proper name then you are right.
If it's a title, then proper English would suggest that you put it
into quotation marks.
But, and you should never begin a sentence with a conjunctive, who cares very much?
The sentEnce makes quite good senSe without any alteration.

It makes sense, but you could simplify the sentence with one of these:
"It is extremely difficult to get across how much I adore Bright Eyes."
"I doubt you could understand how much I adore Bright Eyes."

It is grammatically correct assuming that "Bright Eyes" is a proper name of someone or something.

(Your question itself, however, is flawed by misspellings: Sentance, sence, gramatically -- they should be sentence, sense, and grammatically.)

I don't get the "Bright Eyes" part. why are those words capitolized? Otherwise, it seems fine to me.
