I hit a deer going 70 mph this past jan. and had to get a new hood, headlight, fender, and driver door. Insurance paid for it all. Cant remember the total cost.

 

final word came today. totaled.

 

hey tps221 I have some pics ill be posting later, had much more damage in that same spot on the passenger side, had to pull it out bondo it smooth it and Im up to the final primer application. crazy ex ran her pos aztek into it. even bent in my crease. it takes a lot of work and time and patience and it will still have flaws in it. Your repair could look better than mine. mine is acceptable figuring its better than it was. will look good driving by, not upon close inspection. you can cut off the panel, costs more and you have to weld but will save time and look better.

 

ebay parts are cheap. but with the other damge i Think you are totaled.

 

Buy it back and fix it up cheap from a local shop or a Buddha shop or something, I know a guys who's done it two a 06 jeep and camaro ss and he's got about 1/3 of what it cost to buy the cars in them lol

 

my car went through the same ttype of damage, but not anything hanging off, i will agree with what was said earlier, your totaled, dude, sorry. Maybe you can get another Monte!!

 

Sorry to hear your car is totaled. If you are handy you can possibly buy it back and fix it. Good luck. Welcome to the MCF.

 

the car has a lien on it. can you buy back a car once the gap jumps in and pays it off cause you still owed money on it?

 

From the looks of it I owuld guess they'd say it'd be totaled. But who knoes.
