I wouldn't think twice about drive it again.

Does that sound right or should an agent go look at the car first before it is sent to the lexus body shop.
There are differences among adjusters from insurance companies. But typically, If the repair shop is listed as there affiliate, adjuster accepts the claim made by the shop. If in case agent is sent out, he/she would be evaluating the damage AT the repair shop (Lexus body shop in your case).

Again, total loss would be beneficial for you in anyway.

No Injury involved?

How can you be so sure? Were you at the scene?

Someone could of ran the red light and he t-boned the other person..

i would be worried if it wasn't totalled because of frame damage. if it's totalled, try to salvage whatever mods you put on.

That's not a t-bone hit. Passenger side was a direct hit.....more commonly known as "offset".

thanks guys,

I hit the other car on the driver side, the pic was taken after the car was pushed to the side of the road.
