Recently bought a cruze 94,000 miles 6 speed pretty nice looking car and then 2 weeks having the car a deer jumps out on my way to work. Insurance wants to total the car and only give half of what its worth (which is pretty normal). So im thinking instead of being stuck with a high balance left and no car, im going to use what they give for the value of the car and fix it up the way i wanted it to be. The damage estimate came back at around $7,600 give or take and they'll only be giving around $4,700, but lucky for me a lot of the custom aftermarket parts i was going to put on there eventually actually come out to be cheaper than the oem parts I would have been forced to have on there if via. Body shop. (Carbon fiber hood, full body kit, headlights, tailights) all will make it look 10x better IMO. Im going to have to do the work myself in between working overtime so that'll be fun.
I would like some advice on the best way to repair the dent in the roof from the hood slamming up (sorry no picture), i really dont want to have a big layer of bondo or have to cut it out and weld in a new one but i see those being my only options.
