You may have more in it than it is worth. But, if you have plenty of money, get what you want.

Well, if you are getting insurance money for it, I say repair it and get some upgrades like the CF hood.

If you arent getting money for it, junkyard dive and pickup some good-condition fenders, etc. Although you will likely spend a lot getting these painted.

If the insurance company writes it off (i.e., total the car) go for the 02-03 6-speed.

How severe (or small) is the hail damage, being you didn't even see it until after you baught it. Have a Paintless Dent Removal service look at it and quote you. It's much cheaper then paint work and usually comes out perfect.

Just Use It As A Car To Run Around In, If Not, Then Just Sell It For As Much As You Can Get. Thats My Take On It.
