jumped the curb in my 350. opinions needed
lol... you guys are harsh... hilarious, but harsh.
One would really need to inspect all the suspension components under the car to tell what needs fixed. How fast were you going and at what angle did you hit the curb?
I've hit a curb two times, but on both instances it was all front-end suspension damage. I did the repairs myself... nothing makes you gain respect for your driving skills (or lack thereof) when you tear apart and fix your car yourself. Once everything is repaired and you get an alignment the car drives like new again.
But if you have insurance on it you won't be fixing it... I doubt its totaled, 10% chance... Did the airbags go off? I don't see any from the pics. But if they did go off insurance often times will total a car because of that. It's really hard to tell since I can't see underneath the car but i'd estimate $8K to $10K in parts & labor if repaired by a body shop or Nissan dealer. I doubt there is frame damage but we can't tell for sure until we get good pics of the under carriage.

PM'd ya OP..
I got LOTS of camber arms in my garage holmes. front bumper is EASY to replace... get a check from your insurance and lets see what I can do for ya (on a budget) and you keep the rest for car parts or upgrades..... doesnt look so bad.. If you messed your spring buckets - I got those to.. or even your front control arms..

lol give him a break, and accidents and accident, and happens to everybody at least once in their life time .. I included
anyways, looks fine as long as frames not bent, just check the suspension and everything.
with fked up front and rear bumpers, a perfectly good excuse to go aftermarket now (cheaper too)
i say head down to the for sale section and check out strafe's body kits

I bet its totaled. And if it did bend the subframe, those are only like 600 bucks from the dealer, but who knows what kind of damage is done to the front suspension. Keep us posted on what insurance decides to do with it
The Adjuster just came by and gave me an estimate for $2111. Said that there is probably going to be 5-6k more damage on the car. Anything more than that then its totaled.
stabilizer bar, right-rear wheel, front bumper, center support, lower shield, LT side shield, RT side shield, radiator assy manual trans +25%, P/S cooler, 4 wheel alignment.
I need to find a good repair shop around Dallas while considering most of the damage is mechanical. any suggestions?
How this happened: I turned left onto the service road. The car started sliding to the left. i wasn't able to get it to stabilize. some how this other car avoided me and i went into the curb while drifting.

Did you also mess up your front end and front suspension?
Well we got a regular DK on our hands here. Its all up to your Insurance Adjuster as everyone said but its hard to say with out getting the car up in the air or taking the wheels off to see what links and rods are bent......Good luck to you.
