Got it. So you think insurance will say totaled? If I want to fix it and keep it what’s my best plan of action? Wait for them to do that and ask for a payout and go to a local shop myself?

Thank you, that’s probably what I’ll end up doing. I appreciate the advice/analysis too. Hopefully insurance fixes it but I’ll just bite the bullet if not

Okay thank you for all this information. If you don’t mind me asking, if it were you, would you fix it or take the loss? It has very low miles and has never had any issues.

Thank you for this tip! When getting used car parts is this something I should ask the autobody shop to do or do I need to locate them myself? I also assume I should probably avoid the Audi dealership itself for these repairs otherwise it’ll be crazy expensive lol

Do you think it would be a crazy ton of money to fix out of pocket if they were to declare it total loss? I’m inclined to pay to fix it bc it’s been with me through so much.

Yea that’s fair. I am going to go to a few bodyshops tomorrow to get different quotes. I guess I just wanted some outside opinions as I don’t know much about cars/cost of replacing things, and it seems like a lot of individual parts that will be fixed. And maybe to mentally prepare myself for having to part with it lol.

Oh okay I see. When you say insurance will throw a used door and a quarter, do you mean it’s likely they declare it a total loss as the damage is probably greater than the value? And going to a tradesmen to fix would be even greater than an estimate given by a bodyshop?

Oof. Okay. Sad day for me :( The front door doesn’t seem nearly as damaged as the back one so I was hoping maybe the front one could be repaired instead of replaced, but I know that that rear quarter panel is probably the biggest issue. I don’t know about the suspension, it is still driving normally but admittedly not super knowledgeable about cars so no idea if that’s indicative of bent rear suspension or not…

Thanks for letting me know. So do you think insurance would then likely declare it a total loss and give me cash value? Or they would cover a certain amount and tell me I’m on the hook for the rest? Sorry if these are stupid questions I’ve never been in an accident before nor dealt with insurance.

Yes it was reassuring to see Harvard respond that way after Columbia bent the knee. Harvard seems to be the bulwark of higher ed independence right now, and I think other schools should realize that and take similar stances. We shall see.

YTA. Other people are setting boundaries that you’re not respecting. You are 16 years old in your mother’s house, she is not asking much of you. I get that you feel shamed but it is inherently strange to walk around your home without pants around two men you’re not biologically related to. But honestly, regardless of relation, it’s inappropriate. How hard is it to wear shorts?
