Took it to a body shop today and they said all I need is a new front bumper cover and reinforcement, new hood and headlights. The rear is repairable from what they can see

Mustangs total real easy also, I had a '02 GT and i hit a pole in a parking lot with the front passenger side going like 15mph(stupid story) and they immediately totaled my car cause the air bag went off. I wasn't even asked if i wanted to buy it back, but they gave me $8k for it, and im pretty sure there was only $2k in damage realistically, i regret not buying it back, cause i literally just swap in a Cobra IRS and did a bunch of bolt ons like the month prior.

Also a friend's cousin rolled her '06 Civic SI back in '07 like 3 times and they managed to save it and not total it, not fair.

Sorry I've been gone for a while. I need up taking to a body shop that I liked last Monday. I'm supposed to call them today and see how much progress is done. Probably bit too much longer I think. I will update later today

So they're repairing the front and rear bumper covers, had to order a new front bumper support, get the bumper reinforcements on, repainting the new hood and work on some of the sheet metal. Might get the car back by this Friday!
