Be sure to beat up the insurance company. Definitely go for a total loss. With that much damage, even with an expert fix the car will never be the same.
Car values are an opinion, so theres lots of room to make your case with the ins. co that your car is worth more than they will say it is. Prepare a package in writing, get the highest estimates from various sources, NADA, Kelly and also include autotrader and ebay listings for the same car. If you have pictures, be sure to include those.
Good luck and sorry fro the crash.
