wow, i think it will cost less to just let your insurance give you the money and get a new car. The car will never really drive all that right after you fix it.

There is no way that frame didn't get damaged... and look at the roof! There's going to be LOTS of welding if it's to be something close to straightened out.

No way in hell would I do all of that... such a high risk... Have the insurance pay for it and get an GDB STi ...unless it's not insured or you didn't have full coverage, at which point you're screwed.

if i turn it into insurance i will never be able to afford another car not with one accident on my record which was called my fault. As of my age and my driving record as well as my gender my insurance with me 100% on my car before this accident was nearly $550 a month for full coverage... so im not turning it into insurance.

idk exactly what i am going to do with it yet... but we shall see...

and to tell you the honest to god truth the frame barely looks touched besides the roof... but i am well aware of the uni-body construction so a body shop will soon determine if its fixable and approx cost just for the roof and rear quarter panels.
