Long term project...
Fiat 500 Abarth Cabriolet
I had similar damage done to my 996, and unfortunately it was totaled. I found a door on my own and did the install, and that helped the repair cost a lot. As well, I delivered the car to the body shop with the interior removed, which cut more labor. All in, I was actually able to make a couple of upgrades. The Ins company wouldn't budge on the value of the car, which I thought was too low, but I was able to negotiate the buy-back cost to a real deal. Having a relationship with the body shop helped out, too. Good luck with yours.
