            The trunk lid should hopefully be easy to replace, but I'm pretty worried about the rear pillar. I have contacted Active Auto Body in Portland already (waiting on reply). There's also a guy in Olympia who was recommended to me.

                    Waiting for part out. Just kidding. The pillar looks troublesome.

                            Whos house was it? You should still consider talking to the homeowners insurance to see what your options are. You might be able to get some $$$ and keep the title clean. Trunk is easy to replace, that pillar could be a major pain though. But like others have said, it couldve been MUCH worse and glad you're okay

                                                I have a parts car with a clean trunk and pillar, if you need either of these items.

                                                    That's rough... TBH, I was expecting the car to be completely fucked. Sucks that you have to deal with that, but you did kinda dodge the bullet. Trunks are easy to replace, and that pillar damage isn't too horrifying.
