Default 97' black 2dr civic side swiped by drunk driver...what now?

saturday night i was side swiped, and now my door wont stay shut, and the drivers side it pretty much fucked. only mods are iebachs spring, dc cat back, intake and some rota slipstreams. i dont have much of a history in this field, my previuos crx became to time exhausting and and sold it in good condidtion .

im not sure whether to...
1) part out car
2) sell as is (what kind of cash could i get)
3) fix it

i' have a fatal attraction to crx's and erally want another...just food for thought i guess

any advise is greatly appreciated, I'LL TRY TO GET PICS ON HERE SOON

!#@#EDIT^&%$&
i only have the minimum insurance and im broke

file an insurance claim, pay the deductible and get a new one, or something else. If you really wanted to spend the time, by the car back from insurance and part it out. my friend had a 93 hatch (in 99) that got hit on the side it was like 3000 in damage and didn't even look that bad. that sucks sorry

depending on the damage, i would keep it you can find parts cheap and still have money left over from your insurance to do other stuff, just shop around and find the parts you need as long as the damage is just panel and not structural..

sorry to hear about it though seems like you can't ever have anything nice, good luck
