I don't really know if you are hoping that they are gonna write it off or you are hoping they are just gonna fix it but I hope that whatever the outcome is you will be happy with it considering the damage. Well the only reason I got my estimate that fast is because I decided to go with a body shop that my insurance company has already pre approved instead of my regular one that I usually go with. I knew that it would probably be the fastest way of getting the car back on the road since the body shop won't be arguing with insurance company. They just brought my car in there today and pulled it apart in a few hours and have me a call. Plus my insurance has a lifetime guarantee on the parts that they fix as long as I own the vehicle.
Yea, I won't be surprised nor disappointed if they decide to write it off. Just visited the car at the shop today and it's just been sitting there in the rain all weekend with the hood and bumpers hanging off rusty rotors 'n all. Wouldn't mind getting a new car all over again at this point
