Without seeing the car in person and being a professional autobody mechanic there is no one on here that can answer your question. Take it to a reputable body shop.

How did they not total that out?
Unless you are going to turn it into a race car I would just part it out. You're in Alaska do I don't know how big the import situation is up there but shipping parts to the lower 48 will kill any amount you are trying to re-coupe. Or maybe find a straight shell and swap it all over.
A new car. I guarantee that it isnt even close to straight
how was the pizza?

That isn't worth fixing. 6th gens are a dime a dozen. Why would you even want to put the time an money into that when it is going to cost 3 times what the car is worth just to get it back on the road?
Just looking at the surface:
Bumper
all bumper brackets
bumper impact bar
headlight
fog light (if equipped)
core support
fender
hood
full front clip from the firewall forward because this one is obviously bent to s**t
door
possibly a pillar can't tell but it looks bent
front lower control arm
front tie rod
sway bar (if equipped)
front hub assembly
front wheel if it's bent
repaint front end and blend with rear
That is just the stuff on the surface before digging in to the meat. Just faxed back a claim for one of our used off brand lot cars (was hit by a car flying through the lot that the customer claims the pedal stuck) and it had much less damage than yours and it was $8k worth of fix. A good guess is that you are looking at least that. Again, why would you put the time and money into something that is going to be much much more than what your car was worth to begin with?

A new shell, put your engine in the new shell. Don't ruin a straight body for that crushed pop can.

wtf was you doing skating?
I agree with everyone else. Parts wouldn't be that hard to get to you only if you go thru Canada but honestly if you want to tune it the best thing would be to get another civic. might end up being cheaper in the long run plus don't know how the motor is on it.
