Last week was an unfortunate week for me. I got rear ended friday afternoon by a lady with no insurance, and on social security. Insurance will pay for some of the damage, but I'm thinking it won't cover it all. My rates are staying the same since the accident was not my fault.

My question is this:

How possible is it to get my brick close to the way it was?

My right rear is almost completely shot. Estimates range from $2,500 (using old parts) to $4,500. Bumper, lights, and trunk are demolished. The frame damage is fairly visible inside the trunk and it is enough to make the back right door very hard to open. There is also a big vibration coming from the back wheel and it almost sounds like it is "slipping out", for the lack of a better way to describe it.

Sorry if the descriptions are too vague, but any advice/moral support is welcomed.
