Well. one positive thing I see from this post. The American authority zl1 front bumper chevyboy posted looks like it might actually be tougher that the factory fascias, being that the pass side looks intact.

I am old school and havent had a wreck in 40 years. But I wouldnt want that car back. New sheet metal is great, but how badly is it damaged underneath. Heck I am always finding finish and fit flaws in a new car, fresh off the line. Let alone something that has been put thru a blender.

GREAT NEWS EVERYONE!!!! So after going back and fourth with insurance yesterday they decided to total it out. I went ahead and had it towed to my house. I have a 1600 shop where i have parted out several Corvettes over the years and kept what I wanted LOL. Insurance gave me over $40K for the car and buy back was reasonable so now I have no idea what I want to do.
Option 1- Pull drivetrain and slap it in an old school. Option 2- Slowly repair it and use it as my beater. LOL |

Is there frame/unibody damage? |

If you fix it to use as a driver then it will have a salvage title. Might not be good if you try and sell it sometime in the future!

I figured it was a total because all of the damage that was on the drivers side and it being a 2017 also.

I dont see any frame damage but I have to look into it more. To be honest IF I ever sold it after it was fixed I would show the new buyer all pictures and disclose accident details. I believe in Karma. This is a sports car I wouldnt put myself or anyone else in an unsafe vehicle. Just not cool. And I wouldnt fix to sell. I would fix and put a million miles on it then likely donate it as a salvage.

Looks cosmetic, fix that fender with some bondo. Will be good as new.
