I work at coxtons all we do is write the estimate then allsate comes and looks at it but like cobra 4b said it looks totaled, being an older car the nada say its not worth much and all that labor adds up fast at 34-36 dollars an hour..

If you have reciepts and they are notified on the parts you have the will incorporate that into the value. My car NADA was $1900 and they gave me $3100.

That and I'm pretty sure the damage is more than the car is worth so it won't matter where it goes.
Coxtons is not shady. THSpoq and I worked there for 3 years and I pretty much know the place inside out.

I don't know how that will effect how much I have to buy it back for though (again assuming its totalled). I'm not trying to buy parts on my car twice

Depends. If I just buy another car then yes I would. But to buy another one and get the parts to make it look like my old car (ie the front end) and get it painted I'll probably break even at best. Shouldn't go that much in the red though, so it's not all bad.
