Need estimates or advice

[GITY UUP]

Went to see the car Saturday, it turns out that my drivers side rear axle took most of the damage. The whole rear end has to come out of the car they also couldn't remove the rubber bushings (one inch circular black bushings) at the top of each axle from the old rear end so they had to order those new bushings also. I saw the new Ford rear end that the bodyshop ordered and it was manufactured in April from the tag that was on it. They are taking the rear end to Autosport in Sterling VA this week where my car will get new 31 spline Strange axle shafts, the cradles for the axles and a new rotor and caliper for the rear drivers side they dont know if the gears are damaged but the differential was bent. The car took no frame damage although they did put the car on the frame machine for 3 hours to pull the rear fender and it looks surprisingly good. BUT, I'm still skeptical that there was no frame damage???? Does anyone have an opinion on this????? They are also putting a new rear bumper cover on it. It also turns out that I cracked my rear decklid when I was hit so they had to order a new rear decklid from Ford. I was going to take pictures but the car was already painted the rear fender at least. The bodyshop is still waiting on the deck lid and the bumper cover from Ford. The estimate as it stands now is $7,500 and the other persons insurance (Kemper) is covering everything although I basically had to throw a fit to get new parts on the car. They also have to replace 3 rims and my rear driver side tire. I hope the car is normal when I get it back. I should have it back by the end of next week. Thanks for all of your input and support guys, this board is just super as far as advice is concerned and I appreciate it.
