Nope, I checked all my documents after the wreck. I do have GAP insurance tough.

Like @86geek says, it's highly unlikely a finance company would loan on a car without requiring insurance .....

As far as you fixing it (since you have no body work experience) ....... I suggest that you take it to a good body shop.

Fixed "Detroit style" ....... around here we call it "Bubba style"...... get a front clip, LF fender and L side mirror from the junk yard, the rest can be fixed with a large hammer, welding torch, Bondo and a rattle can of white paint .......

The dealer tricked me and the car is on a loan from Toyota Financial. I guess he ticked the part in the loan application where it said that he checked that I bought comprehensive insurance. He 'advised' be to get basic insurance and GAP to cover everything. I never changed anything after the purchase and I have my policy documents to prove that.

I am willing to invest $$$ in the car as I love my car. If you guys can suggest a good bodyshop then it will be really helpful.
