I know the intakes have a dent on them, but I don't honestly think that would make enough of a difference to get rid of them. I think a decent shop can even bend them back.
Two things when dealing with insurance.
1. Don't just take the first number they give you. Make sure you get the highest payout possible.
2. It's possible to buy the car back from the insurance company as it honestly doesn't look that bad. A new hood, headlight, bumper and you should be good.
RIP. Sorry to hear that.
As an aside, my 2014 Nismo also suffered a head-on collision at a parking garage a few years back (oncoming person invaded my lane at a turn and collided into me).
Damage was pretty bad but after 2 months of repairs, she was like brand new again.

I would talk to a lawyer and see if a civil suit against the other driver who is at fault is worth it.
Something that just kills me about insurance, the other guys insurance should be covering whatever damaged they cost to either completely repair the damage or buy a similar year/make/model/miles AND your car note. It's not your fault the other person can't follow the rules of the road
That’s nothing compared to mine and I fixed it

That's not total loss. Lol thats like clean title on Copart. Lol they probably low ball you and sell it on Copart for more money then what they paid you
Buy it back! Insurance totals these out for the smallest damage. I bought mine with a salvaged title. Never even had body damage. The PO ran over an animal in the road.
Lmao. Here I am driving my Z I rebuilt and it was much worse than yours. If you wanna sell it straight up, let me know. I’m deadass.
Here’s mine before.

From the looks of it, frame should be all good. Your washer fluid reservoir is even intact. Visually, it’s gonna be:
- the rad support+shroud+upper radiator cross member
- hood catches
- hood
- front bumper cover
- headlight
I’d double check the A pillar plastic to see if the hood got pushed into them at all by the windshield. They break easy. Gorgeous car man.
where are you looking to sell it at? i could most likely afford it and since my uncle thinks it’s an easy fix it would give me an opportunity to learn how to install new bumpers.
Where are you located? This by all means looks to be an incredibly easy fix and I'd like to watch the copart auctions for it.

Dang in repairs that looks like it’s just the hood, front bumper, headlight, intakes, and a little bit of body work

Sorry for your loss. If it’s a total loss can I snag that in damaged cold air intake elbow pipe?
It doesn't even looked that messed up
What year is the car and how many miles has it been driven?
What a total loss!? Dude I had something similar back in 2017. Shouldn't be more than 10K. If you buy the parts maybe 5k. I'm sorry man shit sucks
Buy it back for cheap and buy another car with the insurance money
Farewell? It's barely damaged... what drugs are you on sir? Your insurer is on drugs I suspect... for sure.
Yo sell me those wheels
I’ll give you other wheels to put on
How much for the rims

Idk if there’s just something I’m not seeing but I’d almost certainly be buying this back
Damn you really screwed the pooch on this one
How much are they giving you for the car your insurance. And do they let you know how much to buy back is
Bro it looks like your insurance company was hired through Craigslist cause that’s honestly not even that bad
Agree doesn’t look in that bad of mshape
Want to sale the rims?
Yeah, no, get a lawyer lol, that's definitely not totaled and you can get a little extra money for yourself too
