The issue here is FRAME DAMAGE. In a Porsche, you have two serious issues to deal with.
While you own the car, you worry about frame damage and its impact on the quality of handling. So, having is diagnosed and repaired properly it very very important.
Upon resale, you worry about frame damage and PAINTWORK. To protect yourself you should:
Follow insurance and legal requirements to the letter. Do NOT let this bird off the hook, keep his insurance on the hook for a quality repair.
Find a quality shop that can diagnose the frame with a laser machine. If needed document the damage and require that the repair be made to original spec. KEEP records to document this.
Re: Paint work. Find a shop that will respray to factory specs verified by a paint meter. If they don't know what a paint meter is, find another spray shop.
If you want to call me on this, do so.
