IS250AWD hit by someone who ran a red, crashed into pole, need advice
Hi all,
I got side swiped in the rear passenger side by someone who ran a red light at an intersection. I was going at about 50 km/hr when I got hit, and ended up spinning and crashing into a light pole at the driver side. The rear axle looks broken, windshield/hood/roof is warped, driver door caved in about 8 to 10 inches, and the side curtain airbag popped.
I live in Vancouver, BC, Canada, and ICBC's asking me where I want my car to be towed to for repairs and repairs estimates. Does anybody know good autobody repair shops in the GVRD area?
Thanks for all your help..

Just the fact that you writing to us, is a testimony on Lexus great safety protection. Where that beam hitted the door would've been pretty bad on your face if it wasn't for the side curtain airbags. Like everyone else said, that looks totaled. Did the other person have insurance?
