Was t-boned in the most painful looking spot for my car. It shaved off the rear passenger side wheel well and bumper, and shredded my tire.

It also peeled off what looks to be the side and parts of the rear frame. Does this look repairable or like a total loss? Trying to figure out whether to put an order in for a Tesla ASAP, and probably won’t hear back from the insurance companies for a few days.

Fixing the rear quarter alone is 10K to give ya an idea. A lot of Tesla's get stamped Totaled with damage similar to yours. so I would not be surprised if yours is as well. Hopefully the battery isn't damaged or damaged by the tower. The latter happens more often than ya think.
