Rear ended
So recently I was hit from behind and trying to figure out Something. I was wondering after Somthing like this if it's worth fixing. I hear once cars frames are bent they never are the same again. Also in my hatch area all my plastics are broken as well as all my airbag and seatbelt lights are on

Ouch! That definitely did some damage. Obviously it would need a hatch, rear bumper and rear bumper support. The question is how damaged the hatch frame area is.
The seatbelt and airbag lights being on are due to the impact. The SRS ECU will either need to be replaced or reset from the crash data.

what did the insurance say ?
personally, I would go to a Toyota dealer for assessment, as well as the most expensive body shop in town for estimates for the insurance company. Then, go from there. Good no one was hurt.
