It will not have a salvage title or a rebuilt title if the vehicle is not deemed a total loss.

Stock brakes and tires don't seem to do very well on emergency stops...and it probably doesn't help that the car is so light to.

Honestly, the damage to the car looks easily repairable but not cheap. I don't see any coolant on the ground and the damage only looks to be bumper, hood and probably the front end medal supports for the radiator/bumper mounting. If you damaged the crash bar support (medal bumper) that can replace since luckily it isn't welded to the sub-frame. If the headlights aren't damaged/pushed in and there's no damage the fenders, which don't look like it, then really you just need to repair all the front pieces.

As what others have stated, I would also assess your insurance will repair the car instead of labeling it totaled. You probably could do the repairs yourself but it might be difficult to find parts. Shit, why not put a Greddy Rocket bunny kit on now with a carbon fiber hood? lol

Best of luck on your repairs!

You really have to contact your insurance company about this, some companies have new car replacement if the damage is very near to the date of purchase,

Doesn't look too bad. That's easy work for a body shop. You'll have your car back on the road real soon. Just do your research on the body shops in your area.

Get multiple estimates if possible and bring your car to the shop you are most comfortable with. And don't be too hard hard on yourself. Accidents happen. I'm sure you'll be a little more cautious now.

Rebuilt title only applies if they total it, which they wont.. you will still have a clean title but when someone runs a CarFax it will show it's been in an accident.
