you are extremely fortunate in this. Putting the aftermarket suspension on the car and not informing the insurance company can make you liable for the damages. You decreased the height of the impact zones which are set to be at relatively the same height on all cars, so when you collide, it hits specific zones. By lowering the car, you compromised the integrity and safety of the vehicle, meaning the safety inspection was no longer valid. This means the car was illegal, and should not have been driven, and if the insurance company wanted to, or knew, they could drop you as a policy holder leaving you with the bill. Im only saying this so you know what could happen and can take that into account on the next car. Im very sorry for the loss of the car.

That said, im glad every one is ok in this. But please be extremely careful when modifying your car. We found out the hard way.
