Man Really Gutted for ya, Hope it all works out, you should be able to pick up a shell relativly cheeply at least most of the Plastics, Mechanics and front end can be rescued. It may be an opertunity to change color or do some chassie modifications. There's always a plus side to everything.

So sorry to see this and if you were only one step away from your goal of 200bhp even more gutting I am trying to reach that goal myself and it’s a long and expensive process.

I am sure you will be able to get it sorted al the best E :)

starting to think now it may be fixible ,dos'nt seem to be any damage to the chasis ,just the rear qauter panel,is really badly damaged,going to bring to another garage today for a second opion,unsure now rather to sell up everything ,or get it fixed or get a donar shell,still love the starbo ,and have never lost my passion for it ,so i'm sure i'll be back driving soon ,the rear strut bar i had ,think it saved the car from a lot more damage,just waiting to see what insurance have to say

Looks like a straight forward repair assuming the roof isn't kinked and the wheel / suspension components are OK.

Good luck.

roof is fine mate no kinks,and car is driving perfect ,so suspension and that is spot on and the wheel is perfect ,deffintly thinking it can be repaired now ,be easy to get a back bumper and boot lid

Yep, just the rear 1/4 to worry about really. Any bodyshop will be able to knock out / smooth over that.

Being hit on the corner is a pain, as it damages multiple parts, happened to me on the front end similar to yours.
