the car is never gonna ride the same, even if you fixed it. the frame had to have gotten bent. it would be a lot easier to get another civic (even the same year and style if you want)

Okay I got a little update. I put the car up on jackstands and took the wheel off to find that the shock had gotten bent and the spring knocked out of the seat and the biggest reason the wheel had massive camber was because the upper control arm got bent. I don't think the frame is bent so I am going to try and fix it. My plan is to fix the suspension and fender myself and have a shop fix the door and quarter pannel. I ordered a 99-00 si porportion valve and slotted/drilled rotors from summit (front and rear) a few days ago and the aution for the integra trailing arms/disk brakes is ending in a few days so I should be picking those up when it ends then all I need are russle stainless steel brake lines and brake pads from hawk.
All that I can probably pay for before I get my money from insurance but I will have to wait until I get the insureance money before I can fix the shock and spring. I decided to upgrade these also, I am going with tein s-tech springs and tokico illumina shocks.
Insurance offered $4,800 for the car and a $759 buy back, which sucks because my car blue books for around $5,500 I think but they said they don't use kbb. We didn't accept it and they said they have a separate department that handles aftermarket parts so we sent them all of my receipts and invoices so they will probably pay for my rim and tire to be replaced also at the very least.

[rant] Whoa your insurance tried to give you the dick! I feel that if a car is in a good of condition that yours was that you should at the MINIMUM get blue book. Insurance is just getting real bad, if you get close to paying out 1/40th of what you pay them, they get up in arms and try to drop you. [/rant]
oh, and be careful with the slotted/drilled rotors. They tend to warp much faster than blanks or just slotted. If you can, pause the order and read up on the difference between slotted, drilled, drilled/slotted, and blanks!

sorry to hear about your car. i know what its like to have your baby hit. granted mine wasnt near as bad as yours, but still it was gonna cost $1600 and it wasnt even that bad, it was just the type of car. tell they insurance company if they dont want to give you blue book thats fine, thll them you want NADA.

Good God that sucks! I'm glad to see that you're ok though! I'm pretty sure I'd feel the same way if my car which is my first car that I've had since I was 17 got totaled. I hope everything works out for you!!!
