Should I buy back total loss???

Would this kind of damage be easily or superficially repairable, and pass inspection in California?

Total loss for 2013 Scion tC 115k miles is $14.2k before deductible. This is double what I paid for a good deal, and honestly more than it should be. I do not yet have an estimate for the salvage value for the buy back. So is my insurance company kind of getting a good deal because the repair cost is actually low? Will I be able to just buy that taillight assembly and bulbs and pass inspection? Thank you!

Would this kind of damage be easily or superficially repairable, and pass inspection in California? If yes, then what would be a reasonable buy back price?

Critically, this question regards a potential EV rebate of $10k+ that requires two years of ownership, including salvage, so if I could just get it back and get that $10k, LOL.
