If your back window is cracked and plastic, you'll be very glad you bought that top instead of tire & rim upgrades or exhaust mods. (Mis read your comment)

OTOH, that top you installed should help keep the car's value at the top of its model, year & mileage class.

With regards to buying it back, I see those as two separate scenarios. With the buy back scenario, it's drivable but totaled. Hard to beat that down. Most parts (including that nice top) are fine. If it was crushed on one corner, easier to haggle. As totaled cars go, this is a very desirable car.
