The questions you are asking are going to depend a lot on what year your car is (and for value, how many miles on it...) It may very well be totaled.
There is so much underlying support structure for the body, and much of the damage estimate is going to depend on that rather than the body panel damage alone....best of luck in getting it fixed if that is possible, and finding the best possible body shop to do so for you!!!

Real sorry to hear that. There must be some good body shops in your area to get some professional estimates. If not, post in your regional section for some recommendations. Your profile is not filled out so we can't be very specific. All the best.

'08 Coupe accident
A fellow club member was struck from behind while at a full stop in his 4 month old CRM 3LT coupe. Fortunately no injuries! The cost of repair was slightly over $20K and took 2 months. Deminished value is still being negoiated.
