Thanks guys.
Yeah, I'm glad its just the car, not me or my kid.
I spoke with the shop today, they said most of the damage is to the components that are simply bolt-on, so I'm hoping for a quick repair.
There is a slight dent in the floor that needs to be fixed, and tiny scratch on a lower bumper lip, but the rest is just take broken stuff off, put new stuff on.

Got a final estimate today - lots of stuff will be fixed. Crazy!
I'm glad they are really thorough!
This does not include two new front rims - apparently they got slightly bent on the inside.

Well TBH, a lot of it is just Remove and Install (R&I) so its disssembly and assembly. The actual Repair and Replace items are not that much.

Hope you get everything fixed like new in a jiffy...

Thanks Rudy, I hope it gets fixed up soon too.
I think shop got a green light from the insurance, so they should start working on it this week.
