Wow would my G be considered to be a total loss?

When attempting to turn I hit a curb wich made my whole front left wheel break from its bolts and ect.. Like the ball joint, strut, brake bolts completely detached. Is this fixable .

It's gonna depend on year/mileage and general condition of the car. that's quite a bit of damage though. It might be totalled. The best way to estimate would be to get a ballpark price for parts and then labor to install and any paintwork needed and go from there.

Do you have more pics of the entire car?

It looks like you'll need $2-3k worth of repairs. You would also need to see if the frame is bent or not.

If you're G is worth $6k or less, then it would most likely be totaled.

When taking it to the mechanic he said that there was frame damage and it was done with but I was not trying to hear that so I said I he just dosnt want to fix my car but apon thinking and pulling my hair out from stress I figured he was saying that for my safety and ect.. Because I really was praying it could be fixed.

How and exactly where do they see if the frame is damaged?

That is what I thought I would have to replace including rear toe arm but insurance told me other wise. I would have slowly rebuild it at my house but they say it was a total loss. Sometimes I wonder if they just say it's salvaged or their outlook of a reparable car is different from others. Cause to me it looks fixable.

No I hit a curb first, then in order from me hitting a brick wall I had to hit a really hard left to turn the car away from the wall. So in a way the hard turn bent the rear arm and the curb/median messed up the front wheel.

Manual coupe
Bent frame solutions

My bad if I posted this in the wrong thread but my frame is bent and I just need some suggestions on what I can do on my own... frame spreader or anything that can be used to bend back it back straight. My bash bar also seems slightly bent as well. Any suggestions would be helpful, thanks guys!
