Answer by Passo L
The repair work done is to restore your car to its original condition (pre-accident state).
You are entitled to the lost of car use - either a replacement car or a fixed amount per day

If they did not total your car at the accident--they won't...If your car is fixed--move on..
Answer by bostonianinmo
Unless you are driving an '85 Toyota, that's not enough damage to warrant totaling it. Nor is it the type of damage that when properly repaired will materially affect the value of the vehicle.
You can sue if you wish but it won't go anywhere. If you don't win it's entirely likely that you'll be stuck with the other party's attorney's bills on top of your own. The way that attorneys charge that's probably more than the cost to repair the damage was in the first place.
