hmmm... i kind of hope they write it off and i can get some money to buy a new one. i really don't like the idea of having an accident on the car. There might be something they missed repairing it and it won't sell as much if i'm in a pinch and need to sell it.

hmmm how much would you offer? i'm hoping to get at least 20k from the insurance company if they write it off.

don't take their first offer- argue with them until you're sure you can't get any more. Tell them to back up their offer with proof that's what the car would cost to replace.

My wife caught her adjuster in a lie and got what she asked for.

good luck

Sorry to hear about this. Honestly, it doesn't look too bad, it looks totally fixable, but I understand your preference to not keep it.

Thank you everyone for everything and all of the advice. I'll definitely try my best and get as much as i can. hopefully its not a big loss.

Thats what the body shop guy said too. He said anything is fixable. i don't know how true this is but he said that he took a whole front clip from one car and welded it to anther before. Crazy!

Im hoping to get enough money so that i could buy another s

I'm pretty sure welding a clip is illegal, it's a safety issue on so many levels.

Probably best to have the car sent to another body shop
