Yep, well plus, to do it right, I've removed the radiator support and will be welding a new one back in. Airbags make for mighty expensive repairs. This one required replacing the dash, air bags, seat belt pre-tensioners (which deploy like an airbag to tighten seat belt), windshield, hood, bumper cover, crash bar behind bumper, bumper shocks, grills, headlight, hood release, crash sensor, airbag module, etc etc. Some parts common with cts but the ctsv specific parts are low production and much more expensive. Plus, lots and lots of hours of labor. Easier to see now why it doesn't look like much but gets totaled.
