Default Can You Rear Clip?

My situation:
I recently wrecked my s2000 coming back from FOCO and pretty much demolished my rear end. I took it in for a quote and they estimated 10k for repairs. I drove the car home from the crash, no blown tires, no air bags deployed, no injuries, no other cars hit I just destroyed the fenders, trunk, bumper and tail lights and that cost 10k I guess. So this brings me to something someone mentioned to me called a "rear clip" I have found them online in pretty much perfect shape for 2k shipped to me. This sounds like a dream come true everything I need for pennies on the dollar, however I can not find anyone anywhere in Colorado that even knows what a rear clip is.

Does anyone here know how to tackle this task or know someone or a shop that can do this job? I don't want to have to ship the car multiple states away to get this done that's just more money and room for error. Any help is greatly appreciated!

my guess is that you can find parts for 2k... labor is what gets you up to that 10k number...

its not a simple bolt on process they are basically rebuilding the entire back end of the car.

Are you not able to claim insurance for the wreck?
