Default Civic totaled? guesstimates?

My fam member just got into an accident on the freeway. The rear left tire popped and caused him to spin 6 or 7 times and rear ended a concrete median. not sure but got the pics. Now i know this might sound like nonsense but how much do u guys think it would cost to repair. Or, is it worth repairing? I have had my gsr fixed just for the rear quarter panel for 1500 so i dont know how bad this will be to the wallet. thanks.

Looks like its screwed..if you said 1500 for a 1/4 panel on your gsr..thats 3000 right there on that car not to mention probably every part on that car is twisted and screwed someway.

I doubt he avoided frame damage there. I wouldn't bother

theres actually away to fix it, but its not worth the time and $$$ on that car. theres a way to back half that car and get another back half and weld em together but the year/model isn't worth that kind of cash. just part out what you can, and get something new.

thats mad ghetto, a new quater panel, trunk, lights bumper, bumpercover, rear body panel and some other misc. things and you oculd fix it, but honestly it qould cost a hell of alot of money unless you have a nasty hook up at honda wholesale FTW

Yea I'm in agreeance with the last pic making it seem pretty hopeless, that looks like it would have crinkled the frame a s well.
