As was mentioned with the vR, the repair is based on cost of new panels.
Value of vehicle < value of new panels, paint and other parts

As GPX has said you'll probably find the entire front sub frame has been pushed back. The rails on the FTO aren't that strong. So to fix it you'd be looking at a half cut probably welded in just forward of the firewall, assuming the impact hasn't pushed back beyond the firewall. So expensive and questionable to put back on the road.
