Sorry about this incident happening to you Jason, at least you are in one piece. And by the looks of this, I can say it def looks easily repairable. I am sure you can source a ton of used parts to fix the damage and just get a new quarter panel. I am sure you can get whatever susp components on this site for cheap. Doing what I do, I have worked with many body shops and this does not look as bad as I thought to that you were desribing. PM me and let me know if I can be of any help with my mitsu discount 
Well I may have been scared of it being totalled because a body shop guy mentioned it to me as a total loss. I'd hate to see the car go out especially after owning it for only a week. The previous owner, my buddy, I think hates me now.. lol That car was his baby...
I need to find a reputable body shop just in case now..

That really doesn't look tooo bad Jason. Make sure to get a good estimate and like someone said above, push for what you want.
IF they don't fix it, I'll glady take any unbent/undamaged MR wheels off your hands, I have a extra and would like to build a full second set for track purposes.
Again, best of luck!

Have you had any work done with him? I'll definitely take his name down, I've got a couple other shops people have mentioned.
Today's Collision in Malden, MA
Rte 28 collision in west bridgewater
got these from yuppieracing.com
Also guys thanks for the good words. Hopefully she isn't totalled. Doc, I'll keep you in mind for those BBS's... I also have a set of stock enkei's in my basement with snows that will be for sale if this car doesn't make the appraisal.

phil did my work when i got t-ed by an old lady, and i was extremely satisfied. he can blend GG like nobodies business.
he does racing so i trust he knows what hes doing if he has to put it on the frame puller. He also did a great job re-welding my new rocker panel.
My only issue was waiting a month for a rocker panel, But i dont care how long it takes as long as it comes out perfect. he's a stickler for detail, and pretty critical of bodywork in general - which i found (over a few beers) before he did the work on my car.

ROFLMAO
I bet that is fake and its being advertised globally so pirates think twice about boarding a cruise ship potentially filled with drunken land lovers wielding 100 rounds of semi-automatic death, haha. God knowsif I was a pirate I'd prefer to NOT board a ship full of crazed civilians just ITCHING to blow my head off for the fun of it! Either way, awesome idea lol.

I recommend Ventura's Auto Body in Lowell. He's expensive and takes his time but everything Ive seen that has come out of there is quality. He also did some work on my Evo.
