[B]dude-blau,
that is special car, the damage is actually "light" and rear end at that.
don't worry, be happy it wasn't the front end, and that you don't have to have the shock towers and front "horns" replaced.
to a lesser extent - be happy that no humans were seriously hurt.
of course _YOU_ will always be able to tell the difference, but is that diff worth the cash to get a new one?
12K canadian is all?

I think it's just the body work which makes your bady look so scary.
The suspension damage is very similar to damage I suffered not too long ago. Honda basically replaced all right rear suspension and wheel components and the car drives as good as new.
Assuming no frame damage, I would fix it.

How is ICBC handling this claim? If the damage is THAT high, they should just write it off...and you get a brand-new S2K. If they don't, then they're footing the bill. Either way, I wouldn't worry. Just make DAMN sure they get only the BEST shop to do the work.
You were fully insured (comprehensive, collision and replacement) I assume? If not -- your car is going to a better home.

I may plan to paint it to monte blue (the blue in japn) n change the suspension that scheduled this week (will have to postpone).
all depends on the work of the body shop!
