Message	Really sorry to hear it. After looking at the pics from in the spare tire area, I'm sure the insurance company will total it for you, and you probably want them to do so. I understand that it is very very difficult to get a performance alignment after the frame has been damaged/straightened. Although it can be repaired in principle, in my opinion, no matter how much money you dump into this car, it will never handle the same again. Salvage what you can! To the degree possible, swap out your mods for stock parts and then have the insurance company total it. Otherwise, try for the buy-back so you can swap out over time. - John
