if it helps, i went to my friendly local used auto parts junkyard and they have a maxima front end in good condition if you're interested.
In Georgia.
good front, good hood, maybe even airbags in the steering column, radiator if the engine is still in there?
I can get you the phone number if you're interested.
It's a 95-96 front end, either dark green or black i forget. (it even has clear corners on it) I was eyeballin it when i was there

you are definitely right about the totalled bit, i am just saying if the front end i found has the airbags in it (the front end was most likely from a rear end totaled car) and still had an engine in it (less important) then he could replace everything if he really likes his car. and dont forget, it even has clear corners :P

Similar type accident happened to me only I was going about 20-30. It costed $13k to fix. The car was worth about $15k at the time so I came very close to totaling it. Your car is probably totalled.

if ur car is totalled...i want ur tailights, so let me know.
when my friend got in an accident...he didn't replace his airbags

Sorry to here about it... Do you have full coverage?
My Max got hit in the side, right in the passenger wheel, total was ~$12k... When this happened my blue book value was $19k..
Your car blue books around $6k
So unless you have no mechanical damage, its probably gonna be totaled.

I smashed the hell out of my 97 2 months ago and they fixed it. 2 new airbags, sensors, bumper, hood, radiator, alternator, harmonic balance, the works. Oh yeah, and it cost 1400 to repair just the sunroof, which got bent somehow. Insurance company paid over $10,500 to fix my car, but its a 97, loaded. Sounds like your accident was similar, I am not sure what year you have, but figure if you have a 95, they'll sink at least 7 or 8k into it for you. I guess it depends on how bad you smashed it up.

Never, I mean NEVER EVER EVER EVER let a jerk off adjuster go to your house to do an estimate... Take your car IMMEDIATELY to a bodyshop and get a rental. If you don't know anyone at the bodyshop, make friends with him quickly... Talk to him and let him know what you are looking for...
ALL bodyshop owners HATE adjusters...
If your car is still at your home, get it to a shop...

Who ever said that don't let an adjuster come home, and take the car to the shop immedeatley is right.
First of all, if you hit as hard as you said you did, you may have frame damage. If you have frame damage its 99% chance that it will be totalled. Did your winshield crack? Check the aligment of all the doors, if you see anything that doesn't line up, you most likely got frame damage. Do you have dents on the back side of the fenders, where it meets the door (btw check the vertical spacing between the fender and the door, if its uneven, start worrying), even if you have a small dent on the back side of the fender where it meets the door, it may be the sign, that the "crumple zones" got crumpled. They don't restore cars after that, its pretty much totalled.
Also are you leaking anything? you said the radiator got busted, but are you also leaking engine oil? If you are leaking engine oil, that may mean that your engine got moved around, which could mean a broken or a cracked support...or worse.
Anyway, insurance adjusters just take down the damge they usually see. They won't go into the "guts" of the car, and look for damage. Their hourly rate estimates are waaaay to low, and their part cost estimates are low too. You need to take the car to the shop, where they should take it apart, find out exacly what is broken and what is not, and they will give insurance adjust and estimate based on their work rates, and what the parts will cost, which will actually reflect how much it will cost to fix that car. Also talk to the body shop guy to fluff up the estimate so that you won't have to pay the deductible. Also if there is not to much damage (aloth I doubt that, My bet is that its totalled-sorry), put some additional dents in yourself, so you will get a full body paint job. Usually its very hard to match a color of the older car becuase of the fading, so unless you get a full body paint job, your new body parts will be a few shades off.

You can't have work done on your car though if you don't know if it's totalled or not and only the insurance co. can make that decision, which means that the adjuster has to look at the car. Also the check that you get from the insurance co. is whatever the adjuster estimates. I had the choice to go to an "non-insurance co. approved" body shop, but if it cost extra it came out of my pocket, whereas an ins. co. shop does it for the amount of the estimate guaranteed. Besides, I don't care who gets the money, as long as my car go fixed correctly. Around here anyway, and I know Mass. has different insurance regulations than anywhere else on the planet, except maybe NJ, the ins. co. won't cut a check until the adjuster estimates, regardless of what a body shop says.
My panels did line up well after the accident, doors included, no uneven spacing. My engine doesn't leak anything, neither does the new radiator. Anything that wasn't fixed correctly, I had the right to have the re-fix. The work was guaranteed, and the additional parts required were paid for by the ins. co.
The bottom line is, it didn't cost me much, the body shop even took care of most of the deductible, and the car looks good, and I am very meticulous about my car.

They replaced hood, both fenders, bumper, radiator, and even some front frame pieces that got bent.. The car looks newer than it did before the accident, and runs just fine. The assessment was 7 grand though, so if your car is worth less than that, it'll be totalled.

I had a similar accident like yours 2 yrs ago on my Altima, but mine was weather-related, however my air bags didn't go off and my accident came to approx. $4K from Insurance. Had to wait 2 months to get my Altima back and was stuck w/ a Taurus (Tortoise) for that time, but from what you're describing about your damage, if it's serious enough, then unfortunately you'd have to claim the car totalled

well the Maxima is goin to the body shop today.....I'm thinking about replacing only one air bag for $800 rather than 2 for 1600 so that should save me some money.....no side damage and the doors look like they line up fine....no major problems other than the front end which needs a new bumper and headlights etc....the engine got pushed in alittle bit but nothin extreme I think only the radiator got effected because it was hissin like crazy after the accident....I know some good junk yards and a great mechanic so I can only keep my fingers crossed on this one......Thanks for the comments guys......

Make sure you get estimates from several good body places that know what they're doing....

I had my engine shifted over, fender, bumper and hood replaced in December when I went into a spin on a heavy snow road. Nothing deployed because I was going around 15-20 mph and almost got out of the spin successfully but my tires are horrible (Planning on getting that fixed). Anyway, if I were you let the insurance company decide what to do and do without the airbags if it costs too much. I have a question, is it possible to take the rear airbags and install them in the front?
