i'm not sure at all but i think once you bend the frame, thats it, it can't be reversed.

my cousin recked his car, it was bad, but not to far from recovery....but the frame was bent so it was a lost cause..

maybe someone else can help me out
 






i know it can be fixed, the guys at the shop said it can be bent back, they said something around 200$, i was wondering if thats at all correct...you know how these auto repair shops can be with their honesty
 






Frames can and are regularly realigned.
 






but once its bent.. it wont be as strong as it originally was...
 






Well, they can be bent back, the question is how well they do it. If the shop doesnt do it perfectly, then it will never drive the same again.
My last car was considerd totaled since the frame got just slightly bent. The damage to the rest of the car was minimal.
