what should i do
my name is gabe i got a 92 accord for for my first car my step dad at the time gave it to me and before that his brother in law had it and took it to machanic school he put a exhaust system and short ram intake in it and lowered it i then slid the back end of it in to a tree bent the **** out of the lower passanger side control arm and dented the truck area around the tire i was wondering how to fix the body work and what control arms to use? any help would be great i should be getting some pics up soon thanks
wow it sounds like its not worth doing anything to. i would find a car with a blown motor and swap the good motor into it. rear end damage is not woth fixing on a car that old. any pics of damage?

The Body work will be the far more difficult issue for you to address. It will require (at the very least) cutting out and replacing all that bent sheet metal. It will be even more bothersome if the door jamb and materiel under the quarter panel are bent as well. Traditionally, this would be considered a "Body Shop" level repair.
IF the damage has also involved the area from which the lower trailing arm attaches, this would make even replacing the arm an issue. Even with a new arm, the rear suspension would not align correctly.
Unless you've got access to the proper tools and know your way around body shop procedures, I would suggest farming it out.
