It may not look bad but its all the little things that add up to make it a write off. The front bumper looks like its taken a knock as well as where the slam pannel joines the inner wing (judging by the way the lights seems out of line)

PersoanllyIi wouldnt bother unless you knew it was going to be 100% right.

You should buy it back from the insurance if it is written off and split/rebuild it.

defo easy fix, as said... if insurance write it off, buy it back & fix it, tbh I reckon (if you know where to go) should be about £700 - £1k to sort out, as no doubt will need pos. wishbone, shaft, pos a few other suspension/drivetrain bits aswell as a new wing & door...

is the slam=panel raised up at all on the passenger side? as the light isnt aligning proper... if so, again not a hard job to fix!

I had mine repaired from this, cost me £200 to get sorted which included new bumper & bonnet!








btw the wing was knocked out as much as possible before those pics were taken, but my inner-wing was slightly buckled, but not by much! wing was sorted by a panel-beater, as was the slam-panel... couldnt even tell it had been in a smash by time I got it all back!
