mmm i could see a wide body kit on there if there was going to be that much trouble, I would guess it totaled as well, looks like something that would twist a frame...

Have the insurance total out the car and get rid of it. If they fix it, it will be worth nothing with the damage repairs and if you ever wanted to get rid of it then you will have the hardest time trying! Buy a new one!!!

Its really not that bad if you take a closer look. Mainly body. I guess the reason I flew so high was that the median acted like a ramp but I'm pretty sure they where over exagerating it. As soon as I get it back, i'm gonna have the rear end looked at because before I crashed, it felt like I was driving on bolders. I've slide a couple of times in my mustang but seriously it was nothing like this. I'll keep you guys posted.
